Look at me! Another post in the same week!

I thought I'd update my finishes since 2014 when my needle went cold and I stopped blogging for a long while. I actually had two more finishes that year, this one was on my birthday in 2014!

Just Nan's Magic Wings-April 4th, 2014. One of those Filagree Fancies kits.


Later that summer I signed up for a counted canvas piece by Kathy Rees called Sudoku Delight & chose the blue/green colorway. Took it on vacation, which was a good thing cause it rained most of the week! It has since been framed. Completed August 24th, 2014.


I returned to another hobby, crocheting, but while in a neighboring town found myself in a needlepoint shop and picked up a painted canvas by Rebecca Woods on sale called Cat Tangle...with a yarn theme! I used some of that DMC wire for the yarn, wrapping it and couching it down to give the piece a 3D effect. This has also been framed, still need to hang up a bunch of stuff but our recent move has us still unpacking! This was completed on April 8th, 2015.


 That's it. That's everything off my needle until this year. Lots of stuff hot off the hook, crocheting up a storm, gifts, chemo hats for Duke Hospital, throw pillows, afghans, even a queen-sized bedspread in the round, designed by Frank O'Randle on Ravelry. Maybe I'll do a crochet post later, of all the best stuff at least. The hats would be pretty boring though.


Just no stitchy stuff in all that time. I'm feeling the shift back to stitching though...at least I did finish the Mill Hill cat earlier this year (and blogged about it) and I've been working on a couple of UFOs in June. (There will be a post about that too!) The move (in the middle of the Covid19 pandemic no less) has sucked all the energy out of me and we are literally in the final week of it all, with the old house about to be listed for sale, so revving up my needle again...new start coming soon! Thanks for dropping by, please comment if you feel the urge!
