Monday Update with Another Finish

Guess what? I have another finish to report...
2) January 7th, 2018
Winter Messenger by Erica Michaels
Stitched on 40ct Silk Gauze
Threads are suggested Weeks Dye Works
Started Jan 14th, 2017. Took 4 Days.
 
It's one of Erica Michaels tiny pieces. This whole thing is less than 2 inches by 2 inches. So tiny. I love it!! I used the suggested weeks dye works threads. 1 thread just half stitch. Other than the two specialty stitch rows which were rice stitch and scotch stitch. I started this last January and added it to my YOW list to finish off this year. It's now marked off! Wohoo. I'm thinking about mounting this to a burlap frame but I need to get some pretties to finish it off so hopefully I'll do that soon and it will be another finished finish even. Stay tuned to find out.

We had a very relaxing weekend. We watched a ton of TV shows off our DVR. Damnation, The Orville, and Superstition were on the list this weekend. We seem to save them up till we have a whole season to binge watch. I really enjoy doing that instead of waiting for the new episode. Plus it's not really a matter of wanting to. We just watch WAY too many shows to keep up haha. It's been brutal cold. We broke a lot of records. Now this week it's going to be warmer and rainy. What weird weather but it's January in Indiana so we're used to it. I hope everyone has a great week. I'm working on the December Snapshot so hopefully I'll be back soon to share that finish with you.

What a gorgeous finish and a great start to YOW! I still can't decide whether to join in. I only have 7 WIPs (they're all large projects) and I'm not sure I want to add 8 more.

Wow, a second finish already! Keep this up and you'll clear your WIPs by September!
Love the tiny stitches on this.

That is one of the sweetest finishes I've ever seen, Katie--absolutely lovely :)

Rachel said...

One of your YOWs crossed off already? Congratulations! I can't believe how tiny these projects are. You've either got very good eyesight or use a magnifying glass! At least they don't take up much room!! :)
