Mel's Sunday update

Good morning all,

We as you know it was Cirque's turn in my rotation - however seeing as catherine was sooo close to being finished I was naughty and spent the first couple of night finishing her off.

So Catherine is now finished, washed iron and ready for framing. I also took the time while I had the ironing board out and I washed ironed and readied for framing Valour (a blackwork piece) I had finished last year. So I have a few pieces waiting on framing money now :)

I finally got back to Cirque and got a few stitches into her. It was a hell week at work so once again (as it becoming usual this year) most of the stitching was done in the latter part of the week (Thursday and Friday nights). But every stitch helps.

Pics of Catherine and Valour in my finished album. Pic of Catherine also in her own album. Pic of Cirque in its own album.

Ready to start Fire Flower tomorrow - as long as the chart arrives in the mail! Tracy shipped it 10 days ago, so it should be here soon .....

I'm off to work again for the afternoon ......

Sunday update

Morning all, Just a quick update as I am off out the door to work again. Not much to report this week. Lots of hectic work - not as much packing as I would like and bugger-all stitching. Here's one night's work [Sigh]

Catherine of Aragon

Well on a stitching related note, I've been so busy trying to get a house and now move, that I decided it was prudent to leave Mystery IX alone this week :) Seeing as I had Catherine out, I've been working on her all week. Just an hour or so a night.

I'm working all day tomorrow and Paul and some friends are meeting me straight after work and we are going out to see Pirates. So no stitching tomorrow - so here's my Sunday update now :)

Because I haven't worked on this project for over a year, here's a cover pic, the last update pic and tonight's pic all together.

Hugs all and goodnight.

Finished pieces

My very first ever cross stitch done in 1991. Bought this and the bluebells as kits and done them both up at the same time. Mum had these in storage and showed me today 13 May 2007.

Cross stitched pieces I have finished over the years (and remembered to take photographs of).

From 1993 onwards. Current calendar year's finishes are in its own album.
