What I have been up to

Well, here is what I have been up to since last posting.... Started Dorothea Padies this week ...  Stitching on 40 ct Ricamo with a mystery spool
Working on GH 1844 .. have a bit more done since this photo was taken  Stitching on 45 ct Florence with Kodiak Bear and Gandy Dancer 1113
And finished Anna Schween.  This has to be one of my all time favorites.... she is stitched on 40 ct ricamo with Vikki Clayton's converison... it is just beautiful.

Have had a bit more stitching time these last few weeks since I have been off of work due to some surgery.. Recovery  is coming along and it will soon be time to go back to work.

Anna Schween Update

Just started page 6 this morning. That means just nine more pages to go! Almost half way. Will post a pic later this evening. Also received my 45 ct Florence Linen from Needle in a Haystack. Oh my I love that stuff!! Did a few stitched of Celle on it and it is just awesome... Love it so much that I went ahead and ordered 2 more yards. Really can see using this linen for many projects.

also for a treat .. look at Sabine's site and under Anna Schween is my progress. What an honor.

Gigi's Jeanne Ries

Oh my.. this is one my Wish List!!! Just love it. I currently have Jane Rees as a work in progress. Now wouldn't Gigi's - Jeanne Ries look just awesome hanging next to it. Shall be placing an order soon.

Anna Schween

Started Anna Schween about 3 weeks ago. And this is my progress to date. She is such fun to stitch. When working on each rosette, tree, etc you really don't see the design until you look at it from a distance. and then it is WOW. I love the colors in this also. She is being stitched on 40 ct Ricamo with Vikki Clayton's conversion.
