Wow! It has been a long time since I have blog any of my stitching projects. I will try to do better for year 2015. It will be a fresh start. I have joined Heather's "Small SAL" for year 2015. I have also joined a few other SALs and WIP/UFO projects so I can finish the rest of my lingering stitching projects waiting for me to finish them. That is my goal for the year 2015. I also have many HAEDs and BAPs that need my attention too.

I have just finished my "Frozen Spheres" by Frank Lloyd Wright. It took me almost 6 months to stitch. I did stitch other small projects to keep me going. This will be framed as it is a gift to my husband. <br /><br />socialsuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13894779324464292473noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076567370824736000.post-79122204179254596302014-03-26T14:13:00.001-07:002014-03-26T14:13:05.365-07:00Progress updated for "Frozen Spheres"<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

/> I joined the Stitch from Stash challenge from Mel's group. The goal is to stay on a monthly budget which is $25.00 per month. This is to challenge us to stitch from our stash to help us to use up what we have.... I have lots of charts, threads, fabrics, etc. It is a temptation for me to go into my two favorite LNS to browse around. (Buttons and Needles in Victoria and The Stitcher's Muse in Nanamio) It is like a candy store for me. It is hard to resist buying those lovely fabrics, different color threads, new gadgets, charts from favorite designers, etc...... So joining the Stitch from Stash will be a good way for me to focus on using what I have in my stash bins. Making room for new stash, eh? Anyway, so far, I have been working on "Frozen Spheres" which is a BAP. The designer is Frank Lloyd Wright. Also I have been stitching ornies for the "Ornament a Month SAL". I also joined StitchMap group to learn new techniques of stitching various embroidery stitches which is a year long class. Sandy, from the SanMan Originals is putting out flower design per month. I am stitching these tiny flowers in a row for my hand towel when finished on 18 ct aida. I usually use aida fabric when I know the item will require frequent washings. Linen and evenweave fabrics for other projects. I am excited to see how much progress I make in this new journey of mine. socialsuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13894779324464292473noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076567370824736000.post-30390643565893409642014-01-15T20:10:00.001-08:002014-01-15T20:10:02.105-08:00"Frozen Spheres" - Frank Lloyd Wright<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is the tea wallet that I made following the "tea wallet tutorial" by Handmade Therapy which I google on the internet. I was tired of carrying my tea bag packets in my purse and then finding them all crushed from the items stored in my purse. <br />

This is the last of my Trans-World Reading Challenge until next year.<br />
<br />
This book is about revenge from a man who is bitter and decided to take his power and wealth as a means to try to destroy another man's life and reputation. Andrew, the author, used the era of King Charles, the history of Barbados, and the war commanded by Cromwell to a make a fiction novel of Tobias Rush's manipulations to end Thomas' life. It is an interesting history with a mixture of loyalty, mistrust, cruelty of landowners toward slaves and the general attitude of the British people toward their monarchy!<br />

For the plastic bag dispenser, I decided to use motifs of fish. The bag is black and the fishes are in tan/brown design....like you see on cut potato and use paint to stamp on paper. I will probably use this bag in my RV when I go camping as we always use plastic bags when buying groceries. At home, we use canvas or cloth shopping bags since the grocery stores do not like to use plastic bags for environmental reasons. <br />

I had a small piece of fabric of motifs of sewing items such as spool of threads, bobbin, needle threader, etc and made a needle case to hold all of my cross-stitching needles. I added a pocket to hold skeins of threads, scissor, etc. This was a quick and fun project. <br /><br />socialsuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13894779324464292473noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076567370824736000.post-12005091741353460092013-09-20T11:01:00.003-07:002013-09-20T11:01:51.588-07:0053 Weeks Scrap Challenge @ Samelia's MumI am getting behind in my 53 weeks challenge.

This is an intriguing story about a relationship between two men during World War 11 and the consequences of living in a society that condones homosexual behaviour. I was amazed at how far a person wold go and the perverseness to overcome difficult and dangerous barriers to find their loved one. It was both sad and a moving story involving son, nephew, uncle and father. I highly recommend this book for those who are interested in the history of those who have been persecuted due to their sexual orientation as well as those who were deemed "unfit" during Hilter's reign. <br />

I decided to join in on the 52 week Scrap Challenge at Samelia's Mum. There is a new project every Monday with tutorials to guide you along with the sewing. Feel free to join us to use up all your little pieces of scrap fabrics that you don't want to throw away.<br />
<br />
The first week's project was a heart pincushion or ornament. It is made out of my leftover scrap fabrics. I used one of my Hawaiian turtle fabric as the focus of the heart and left-over solid colors around the turtle. I did the same on the back of the heart. I now have a pincushion to keep all of my straight pins from going astray while stitching/sewing. <br />

I just finished "Children of the Rising Sun" today. The photo on the top shows the full design, stitched on 28 ct Laguana with all kinds of threads. DMC, Splendor, Gentle Arts threads and beads. The challenge for me, was the feathers. The bottom photo shows what the wolf looks like on her head.

I picked up The Britain No #1, Cross-Stitcher magazine and this is a cover kit that came with it. I thought I would give it a try since it would be my first time stitching on wood. The red felt in the background is what I used to cover the stitching on the back of the fob. This was a fun stitch!socialsuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13894779324464292473noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076567370824736000.post-7213306877691925652013-07-29T10:38:00.000-07:002013-07-29T10:38:19.666-07:00"The Ways of the World" by Robert Goddard<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I was given the opportunity to join the Transworld Reading Challenge with the compliments of Elizabeth Masters. I selected 3 books to read then write my review. This is the first book review.<br />
<br />
Very intriguing mysteries throughout the book which captivated me at every twist and turn. The drive to find out who killed Max's father, why and what his father's occupation really was to cause secret servants and the spy networks to sabotage any of Max's attempts to find out the "truth" of what had happened. I was interested in the methods used to solve the mysteries. Max's perseverence to dig deeper into the relationship between his father and people involved led Max to become dangerously too close being a target of the assassin's bullet. Ashley, Max's brother, wants Max to "let sleeping dogs lie" but he has his mother's full support to find closure of her husband's death.<br />
<br />
This reader is anxious to be on the next installment.<br />
<br />
I highly recommend this book to those who are interested in reading about mysteries and the intricacy of spy networks!<br />
