Recent Stitchings and TUSAL Update

Since my last post, I have been keeping myself busy and still managing to squeeze in some stitching time.  First off, here is my June Tusal update:


I had some orts to add from my father's day project.  I didn't want to get distracted from it, though, so I wasn't working on many other projects at the same time.  

Since I finished Vault Boy, I have made a couple more Christmas ornaments.  These are for my family members:



The leaves will be pretty much the same in the remaining ornaments but the monograms are all in a different color.  I still have to do a yellow C, a blue D, and a purple J.  I haven't decided on the best way to finish these yet, but they do have to be simple since my mom decorates their tree in mostly white and silver.

I also made Little Guy a small Sonic the Hedgehog as a "feel better soon" present.  He is very happy with the finished image.  We just put it in a black picture frame.


And, I finally made myself something!  I completed this Lizzie Kate chart sans heart charm with a few minor changes to color and some of the stitches.


I held a strand of light and dark thread together when stitching the trees and completed the hill with half stitches for a more grassy affect.  

Hope you are all enjoying your summer.  Happy stitching!

Father's Day

I actually finished the Vault Boy cross stitch by father's day as planned...yay!  I stitched the image on 14-count black Aida using two threads.  I don't know how many hours went into this but it feels like it took quite a while :)  I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, though there are a few untidy stitches in there.


Our son made Mister a nice construction paper card with this inside:


Luckily it was a beautiful day and we took a long family walk down by the bay and through the surrounding neighborhoods.  

Hope you are having a happy Monday.  Keep on stitching!
