Weekly Update

My arthritis was still acting up this past week, so I only worked on cross stitch projects since they're easy on my hands.

I did some more work on the Celtic Jewel Bookmark from the Textile Heritage Collection.

 

I also worked on The Dolphins' Domain designed by James Himsworth.

 

Finally, I pulled out yet another UFO, Serenity by Joan Elliott.

Here's what I had already done:

 

And here's this week's progress:

 

 

Weekly Update

Crochet:

I finished the Moonflowers scrap afghan by Sharon Volkman.
 

 

I've still got a big box of acrylic yarn left, BUT I've been working on my goal to use it up for a year now and I'm sick of it, and my hand hurts from crocheting too much. So, I'm putting the acrylic yarn away. I'll pull it out again someday and do another scrap afghan (or two) and finally use the stuff up, but not right now.

Knitting:

I did some more work on sewing Oscar to the Octopus Garden Blanket by Georgia Vincent.  This one's getting put away for a while too.
 

Blackwork:

I did some more work on Da Capo by Elizabeth Almond.
 

Christmas:

I finished stitching the Tiny Stockings ornament with the poinsettias designed by Jorja Hernandez.

Quilting:

I finished the coaster I've been working on.

Cross Stitch:

Finally, I pulled out a couple of UFOs this week.

The first one is the Celtic Jewel Bookmark from the Textile Heritage Collection.  I couldn't find a designer for it.

Here's what I had already done on it:

And here's what I did this week:

The other UFO is The Dolphins' Domain designed by James Himsworth.

Hiatus

I've got a nasty cold and just don't feel up to dealing with the blog this week.  I'll be back next week.

Weekly Update

Crochet:

I got 9 ¾ out of 11 rows done on the Moonflowers scrap afghan by Sharon Volkman before my arthritis made me stop. The good news is that I got almost all of the ends woven in.

Blackwork:

I pulled out Da Capo by Elizabeth Almond again and got some more work done on it.

Christmas:

December's here and it's time to work on a Christmas project. I'm doing the Tiny Stockings ornaments designed by Jorja Hernandez again. I finished stitching the stocking with two birds that I had started last year and started on one with poinsettias.
