Sunday's Stitchy Update...

This week I ordered some more envelopes so I could get all my projects into their own envelopes and get everything arranged into some type of rotation.

This is how the new envelopes that I ordered from Amazon look.  The new one is the red one in the front.

I ordered ten envelopes and I already had six which make 16 envelopes and they EACH HAVE a project!  Don't know how that worked since I started 2012 with 15 projects and just completed my second finish, which should be 13 more to go ~ NOT 16! :D Whatever, I am just going to go with it! LOL

So here is how my rotation looks!  Most of my projects are small so I mixed in the few big ones I have with the small ones.  I decided that I am going to do a weekly rotation. Every Monday I will pick up which ever project is in the front of the tote and work on it thru Saturday.  Doesn't matter if I get to work on it for five minutes that week or every single day but on Saturday that project gets packed up and put in the back of the tote. Sunday is Lizzie*Kate day - so that will be my "transition day" LOL

When one envelope get emptied out...I will simply fill it with another project from my vast and ever growing stash! I figure this will keep me busy stitching FOREVER and EVER

So finally here is my stitching for the week! 

I finished Sue Hillis' DysFUNctional. 

I am going to miss stitching on this one because it is so colorful and it was a fun stitch!

I also got some stitching in on my L*K One Hundred Years and here is the progress picture for that!

That is it for this week!

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to come back next week for another stitchy update!

Sunday's Stitchy Update...

Haven't felt like doing to much this week...guess it was just one of those weeks!  Haven't felt like doing  anything.

Stitched some more on Sue Hillis' DysFUNctional. 

No Lizzie*Kate day this week; just didn't feel like stitching on it!

Then on Saturday I decided to straighten up my floss!  Who KNEW it would take almost two days :(  My floss cabinet is completely restocked with every floss color and then I have another bobbin of each thread as a spare in those plastic floss boxes.  I wound bobbins and labeled everything for two days and this is how my cabinet looks now :)  I am very pleased with my effort...

My floss cabinet!  I love this cabinet :)

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek at my stitching!

Hopefully next week I will have a better update.

Sunday's Stitchy Update...

Not to much stitching time this week but I got in a little. 

Stitched a bit on Sue Hillis' DysFUNctional.  I just LOVE the colors on this one! 

Sunday is my designated Lizzie*Kate day so I stitched some more on my One Hundred Year piece.  I am planning on doing this for Jacob's Kindergarten teacher for the end of the year gift so I want to make sure it is finished in plenty of time so I am going to concentrate on this one until it is finished.

Last week I bought these envelopes at Michaels to store my charts and fabrics in when they are not being stitched. 

This is what my envelopes look like

and this is what my current projects look like all organized in their bin!

Thanks for stoping by to look at my stitching,

see ya next week with another update! ;)

Sunday's Stitchy Update...

Here is is Sunday again! And day 8 of the Crazy 2012 Cross Stitch Challenge! I have been making plenty of stitchy progress – hope it continues like this through the year

I already posted the first four pieces in an earlier post so here are the next four…

Day 5 was Thursday and I started Sue Hillis’ DysFUNctional ~ I LOVE the colors in this one!

Then Friday I started the Nativity scene from Broderie. I was going to stitch it in all white but now I am thinking about adding some different colors in...just have to determine what they will be. This one is a quick stitch and may finish it the next time I pick it up.

Saturday...aka Day Seven was the start day for Lizzie Kate's ABCs of Parenting. This is my second time stitching this chart. This time it is being stitched for my daughter.

And today, Sunday; is day eight and it was the start day for Lizzie Kate’s ABCs of Aging. Did not take a picture of this one yet, so it will be in my next update!

We are a little over the first half of the 15 days; and I still have three new starts, two WIPs and a UFO to stitch on in the next seven days. So stay tuned to see what is coming up next!

Thanks for stopping by…and please leave me a comment so I know you have been here ;)
