Whippy Wednesday

Hello friends!

Today I have some progress on a few things.

Starting with Little Quakeresque.

I finished al of the letters now.

Added in my last great fathers name and info.

Started on the last two rows.

This heart has been giving me the worst time.

I cannot tell you how many times I have frogged

this now, and it still needs to be re-worked.

I needed to back away from it for a bit.

More progress on Blueskin.

As you can see started the second row of cherries.

The cherry to the left did

not look like the others.

The pattern called for it to be this way.

However looking at the picture, it was

the same as the others.

 

So I fixed it.

Much better.

Next up is Turkey Trot.

Am really getting in the mood to stitch

more Autumn.

Call me crazy I know.

I finished the annex part of the house to the right.

Am using all the called for flosses.

Oh how the photo looks so different.

Added three lil acorns and started the turkey.

Realized I did not stitch the star,

so moved to this side now and started this.

Will then go back to the turkey.

Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow.

I started this project last October 27th.

My goal was to complete a block

each month and it would take me a year

to finish this huge piece.

I am coming to the finish line.

The finish line being the final block of four.

Block 9 is now complete.

Three more to go.

I actually enjoyed stitching this one.

Although I did change up the mummy's eyes, 

nose and mouth though.

The pattern called for orange.

I chose a gray.

Outlined Frankie's arms and head.

I loved even the border around this one.

Unlike the block above,

I really loved stitching on this one every night.

Did not have to force myself to stitch this time.

Like block 6 where I just had to change up the pumpkins.

This is a Halloween piece, not Fall.

The next block is going to be once again a rough one.

Don't see a Halloween theme in this one either.

I will continue on though as the finish is near.

In other news,

Yesterday morning was a rough one.

20 minutes into my 1  hour drive,

all hell broke loose as I drove into a heavy rainstorm.

Standing water everywhere and still dark outside.

I had to continue slowly and it rained the rest of

my way into the office.

Tonight we are going out to dinner with friends.

A new Lebenese restaurant recently opened

two towns North of us.

We all want to try it.

Bob is half Lebenese, so he will be our judge 

as to if it will be good or not.

Will let you know what he thinks.

Well have to get to work.

At least no rain this morning to contend with.

Whippy Wednesday Blessings To All!
