Challenge

I have finished and photographed 7 of my 8 challenges.  Unless somethin changes, I don't intend touch the other one right now. Instead I have set 6 new challenges for myself.  I intend to do them before I touch anything else.  One of these days I'll and post these six and then try to keep up with my progress on the blog.  How about the rest of you?  When are you going to post again?

Finished!!

UFO #1 is done! My friends has promised me a better photo once it's been framed.

Okay, this 400 plus year old girl did not beat me!! I finished the Loara Standish sampler and yes it is reversible. I will be showing her off. Lenore

Tami's summer needlework

Here is what I have been doing this summer. I completed my second lesson in my Goldwork class which was two pieces that I had to stitch in silk. I also started in July doing a cross stitch guardian angel for my new Grandaughter. She is expected to arrive the end of October so I have to keep on task with this one.
I ahve my Lesson Three designed and the linen fabris framed and ready to start stitching this week.

This is why it sometimes takes a long time to get any embroidery done.

Guess I finally got on. Too confusing for me. Wanted to comment that it's nice to have a big city shop in appearance to show all the great merchandise. Way to go Judy and her gang of workers. Lenore

Great Shop

I can hardly wait to get back and see the shop.  Congratulations - it looks great.
