My Sunday Stitchy Update 02/23/25

Good Morning Friends!  It has been a warm week here in Tucson and I am enjoying it! I talked to both of my brothers and one was expecting  inches of snow and the other expecting between six and nine inches and it was -7 degrees! I have experienced enough of those temperatures in my day to feel cold just by mentioning it! I am so glad I don't have to deal with them anymore. Though those temperatures do encourage staying in the house and stitching!

Do you prefer the cold or hot weather? By now I am sure you know I like the heat and the hotter the better! 

Luckily for me I still managed to stitch and here are my results!  

First on Sunday, I continued on the Enchanted Christmas Snowman from the day before. I am so glad I got this one organized for myself finally and I think I will finally make some decent progress on it. 

The Enchanted Christmas Snowman

Artist - Dona Gelsinger

Heaven and Earth Designs

Added 103  stitches on 02/16/25.

After that I pulled out an oldie from the WIP Box that I love! I didn't stitch to much on it but I did get some stitching in on it. I love the way it looks when stitched.

Shades of Gold

Designer - Nicole Dostal

Northern Expressions Needlework

  

Put in 137 stitches on 02/17/25

Then I thought, it was time for a Christmas piece! It is just a simple piece but I think it is kinda cute and it will make a nice pillow to decorate with for the holiday. 

String of Lights Christmas Tree

Artist - Ruth

Craft with Cartwright

  

I added to the lights with 187 stitches.

The next day I was pretty sleepy but I thought I should get in a few stitches so I could keep my streak going (1,146 consecutive days and still going!) so I picked up the rainbow.

I only managed 42 stitches but they count!

The next day I decided to work on the Nintendo block for  couple of days. This is another one I really need to get moving on! So many pieces I have to stitch, but NEVER enough time.

Contra

Armada Designs

  
I got in 121 stitches on this piece. 

Now I am working on the Temperature Library. I finally finished the shelves and now I have to fill them up! I took out the skull for October because after discussing it with Tia; I am going to put the shelves in differently then the designer did.

Kristi’s Corner Needlework
 

I want to rip out the stitches around the space on the very top also, so I can add more than the year for the date but I will need to see if they come out easily on this fabric. If not I will have to think of something else to do. 


Oh I almost forgot! I ordered a Needle Organizer for myself and I am overjoyed with it. I ordered it from the Etsy store Embrcraft. The shop owner was very nice and so easy to work with and answers questions promptly. 

Needle Organizer

This is the front.

He personalizes it with your name or whatever you

want there. He also has different fonts available.

This is the top of the organizer.

It has space for 100 needles. The holes are prenumbered so I will just 

put the numbers from the organizer on to my color key for easy reference. 

And this is the back of the organizer.

If you have a favorite saying, you can put it on the back instead of your

name on the front. I asked him could I have both the front and back
personalized and he was more than happy to accommodate me.

I highly recommend him! He also has other items for needleworkers for yourself
or a gift for a friend if you would like to take a peek here is his store's link

I am not receiving anything in exchange for this endorsement;
I am just a happy and satisfied customer.

Well, that is another week over, done with, gone.

I would like to thank you for stopping by and seeing what I have been doing this week.

Please stay safe and keep stitching and see you again soon!
💜   Love  to you all!   💜
