One of my stitching buddies told me I needed to have before and after pictures for my September samplers.
So here they are:
Carmen has a central cartouche filled with letters, numbers, and words. I would love to have all of them stitched by the end of September. I also wanted to have them all stitched by the end of July. And then by the end of August. We'll see if September is the charm--it will be the third time I've made the attempt, after all.
Darlene O'Steen's Queen Sampler is this year's (and next year's as well) SAL. To stay current, I have to fill in the center of the vine. Being contrary, I've done some other stuff but haven't done any more stitches in the vine. I need to do that in the next couple of weeks before our next SAL meeting.
A Fancy Basket Ann Kemp 1815 is my almost-all-cross-stitch project for those times when I need to stitch but need to do nothing more than count. Progress on this will be determined by how much easy stitching I need.
And I may need a good bit. September is shaping up to be a silk/silk-&-metal thread month as well as a sampler month. I'll show you that tomorrow.
