The wedding is April 19th. I recently told my Mom that I'm not taking a framed piece to Hawaii. I don't trust it to not get broken on the
plane and I don't want to have to sit and hold it for 4 hours! I figure I will get it done and leave it at my Mom's for sis to pick up. Besides,
doesn't etiquette say you have through the first year to give the couple their wedding gift? Even though I know it won't take me that long to get it
finished. Although with the new Ink Circles Celtic Mystery I may not have as much time to work on finishing this one. :

Yeah, well, not quite. It's about 75-80% complete but I've lost my desire to stitch it. Long story short - the wedding may not be happening this
weekend. So it's going to sit until after we get back.

Oh dear, this is not good. Hope all goes well, and that you'll be inspired to finish it when you get back! You're too close to a finish to let it
lanquish! HUGS!

I've been forcing myself to work on this and it's almost done. I've got all of the castle stitched and most of it backstitched. I just need to do
the rocks from middle to right of the design and backstitch them, and the clouds. I thought I would leave the clouds to the last as they should be fairly easy
to complete.
I've just saved a new pic and will be changing my avatar to show the updated Castle Ridge.

I'm having a hard time picking this one up - and I think I have about 10 hours or less to finish it up. I could really use some motivation on this one!

So after posting here yesterday I picked up Castle Ridge first thing after dinner when my stitching time started. I put about 2 hours in and got all the rocks
stitched! Now all that's left is the backstitch and the clouds - since I determined that the clouds will help add to the sunset look.
I'm going to make it the first one I pick up tonight too and hopefully get another two hours into it. Not sure what the weekend is going to bring except a lot of yardwork! It would sure be nice to finish this one and put something new into the rotation.

Last night I finished backstitching all the rocks! This is really quite the achievement. For those that don't know - last weekend while doing some yard
work I found 3 baby kittens in my back yard. I haven't been stitching much because I still have to finish the yard work, but now I'm feeding 3 babies!
They're so cute but they take away from my stitching time! Planning on getting some time in this weekend.

I'm back to stitching this one, so here to cheer you to the finish!
Better late than never?! Yours is beautiful!! love the fabric choice. Mine 3 minis
(all but peacock) are on 32ct belfast clam.
I've been taking care of 5 (started at 11) TNR (trap, neuter,release) cat in my backyard for more than 5 years. They're a handful, but at least they're not kittens. Good luck with the babies. |

Thanks! They're really cute and lots of fun to play with! I'm really enjoying my mommy time with these babies. I'm also enjoying the fact that
it's temporary and that we'll be finding homes for them pretty soon. I'm keeping them confined for now, but I know that's not going to last for
long. They love to climb although they're not terrifically good at it now. The sofa seems to present no problems for them though when we're not
looking.
And now what I came here for! I put a few more stitches in the clouds last night - in all of my half hour of stitching time. But, it was TW Monday and I did manage some stitching! That in and of itself is an accomplishment - see above.
