Monday Update

I started a new project called Snowy Owl by Joan Elliott from her Bewitching Cross Stitching book. It is for my MIL. Although she stitches herself she fell in love with it so I said I would stitch it for her.I am on a tight schedule as she is coming to visit this next weekend and I am trying to get it finished for then. It also has beading as well as back stitch and French knots.



Next up is Dragon's Lair. I was really getting into it but stopped to stitch the owl.



Last but not least Castles in the Air.


A close up of the area I am currently working on.



My Spirit HAED hardly got a look in this week, so no point doing an update on it for just a few stitches.

  8. I was admiring that chart when my book got here. I have a friend that adores owls and I would like to stitch it up for her for Christmas. I really need to stop adding things to my to-do list.
    Beautiful work Kelly!
