Re: Sina's stitches (Autumn forest update on 11th June)

I don't wonder! That AF reminds me of one picture I stitched for this woman, who lives in a town near my hometown. I asked her once, when she lived closer with her husband, if she likes winter or autumn. She said autumn. I never told her what I was planning. Then I just stitched and stitched, until the last stitch found its' place. The Local Framer Man stepped in and framed the picture, and I sent it to the woman.
She was totally surprised, just the way I had planned! She said she loved the picture. I smiled and thought "this is what I was planning all the time, but I didn't tell you before now".

Today I needed a quick break from my wreath and so I stitched up this little pin cushion for my needles. Unfortunately I don't have anything at home to stuff it with so this has to wait until next week.
I took the design and idea from CrossStitcher magazine issue 305.

That is stunning! I am sure you will find the right way to finish this. You can stitch!

Thank you everyone!
MysteryStitcher, I loved reading your story, thank you for sharing!
Serinde, maybe my confidence has grown, but maybe I am just crazy. :D

I can now show a little progress on my wreath. Unfortunately I haven't had as much stitching time as I would've liked, but progress is progress.

I've been having a lot of things interfere with my stitching time too, but progress is progress, and every stitch gets us closer to a finish. And your stitches look lovely. Can't wait to see more.

I agree with you, Mouselady. Every stitch the stitcher makes is one stitch closer to the finish line.
