Goals for the Month of April 2012...

1. Get half of "Cardinals on Sled" finished...

2. Finish two small projects that are in my coffee shop carry bag...

3. Finish the needle book from the latest edition of CrossStitcher Magazine...

Yet Another Progress Picture...

And here's where I'm at after session number three... I'm pleased with this progress so far... The beauty of this one is that a lot of the picture is in half-stitches, which means I can cover large amounts of area quickly... All the blue is half-stitch, and the tree trunk which will eventually be in the background will be half-stitch too... I love half-stitch... But, for now, I am working on the full crosses... Takes longer, but they are beautiful...

The picture has been edited, due to my crappy picture taking skills at night... I auto-adjusted it, making it less yellow from the overhead lights, then I resaturated the colours to make them pop more... A much nicer picture than last time... :)

"I Don't Do Mornings!" Finish...

Progress on "Cardinals on Sled"...

So, I started this today... Currently it looks like a certain Pokemon's fur coat... I was tired, so I couldn't do any more without my eyes going blurry... I was tired because I have just finished my professional licensing exams for being a Pharmacy Technician... The OSPE and MCQ were tough, but I got through them... Now I just have to wait for my results... Gulp... Until then, I'll be keeping my mind on this thing... :)

I finished another cross-stitch during the drive to London yesterday... I'll have to take a picture of it and post that tomorrow...

Goals for the Month of March 2012...

Goals? Buahaha! What are those? I have exams this month... The OSPE and MCQ are calling, and I am terrified of picking up the phone... Geep! Wish me luck!

In the meantime, please note that I will be dragging some small stitching with me on my early morning coffee excursions, so I may actually have a finish in March... Not something on my list, but a WIP that's been hanging around since I was in Ottawa a few years ago... I think it's appropriate... I will share when it's done...

"Faith Ornament" Finish!!!

Goals for the Month of January, 2012...

1. Finish "Faith Ornament"... I know it's small, but it's 18-count, which for me is tiny... I have exams in March for my regulation in my profession, so I doubt I'll be starting anything new until those are done... At least not working hard at anything new... I'm sure dabbling at something won't hurt too bad, and may cause me to stop going insane from Pharmacology lessons...

I think I'll post a list of my WIPs and new things to start for the year... I want to get some old kits out of the way, and there are a couple of things that will probably be a requirement for this year... I'm going to have to get organized...
