finally some progress
I have not touched this in forever. I think it is the fabric. It is the first time I have stitched on 45 ct and I was really struggling. All of a sudden today it all seemed okay and I made some progress. This is done on Vintage Buttercream with Belle Soie conversion from the Attic. I stitched for a while last night and a little today and added a little bit of progress at long last. I am going to make this my Sunday stitching project for a while and see if I can't get going on it. The fabric color is warmer than it shows in the pic, it is overcast here and I couldn't get a good shot. Maybe with the next progress I will be able to do better. Marjo in Alaska

It's been awhile .....
Hello everyone!
I have finally returned to stitching on Mary. Unfortunately, I was side tracked for awhile with other things but here she is.

I took the time to get her on roller bars and now she's much easier to handle. Previously, she and I were hoop-ing it. That just wasn't working for me. This is much easier on my hands.
Glad to see I'm not the only one not finished :)
Happy stitching!

Miss Mary in Virginia
Miss Mary has not had much action lately but I did add a few stitches last week. She is coming along slowly but thats ok. She is a great piece to stitch and the little lady got me interested in Quaker style samplers. Now I have a few more waiting in the to-do-box all ready to stitch but there are many other things in there crying to be stitched. So many great things to stitch but not enough time to do them.
Happy Stitching every one

Three motifs added
I thought I was going to go blind stitching that white motif on the bottom. But I didn't... so, I proceeded to add three more motifs. Here is my progress so far:

Happy Stitching, Everyone!

Moving Right Along
Here is another update. Being a stay at home mom now really does wonders on my stitching. I can't believe how much I can get done in one day. Of course the rest of the day is spent entertaining my daughter, which I'm enjoying so much. When the weather warms up a bit more though, I believe we'll be spending the majority of the days outside. I can't wait for summer. Way up here in Northern Maine, it is another month away.
Happy Stitching,

Progress on my Mary

Spring Break did bring some stitching! Never as much as I would have liked. The picture is terrible as it was taken with my phone. I cant find the cord to my camera to upload my pics. I am thinking about adding some blue like a DMC 930 or DMC 931. this colors would complement my living room colors. I am not sure if I have stitched too much now to try to add the blues...
