I’m about to sit down and start this week’s project, but wanted to get the photo stuff out of the way before I do. I’m stitching it on 32ct Creme Belfast and using the following changes for fibers (Crescent Colors/switch):
Bamboo / GAST Straw Bonnet
Razzleberry / GAST Briar Rose
Old Blue Jeans / Old Blue Jeans
Brandied Pears / WDW Palomino
Cocoa Bean / GAST Sable
Hickory Sticks / GAST Dark Chocolate
Weeping Willow / GAST Chamomile
The finished size will be 8w x 7h using the 32 count. It calls for 28 count with a finished size of 10w x 9h
Next up is my latest Summer Queen photo
Last but not least is a picture of my new ort ‘jar.’ This past Saturday Darla mentioned the SAL where everyone was saving their orts (I’m sorry I can’t remember what it’s called). I’ve been saving mine, but didn’t have anything to keep them in that the puppies couldn’t get into. I looked on Sunday while doing errands. I didn’t know what I wanted, but knew I would know it when I saw it. There’s a somewhat long joke behind the design on my ort jar. We’ll see how long it takes for someone to comment on my choice. But let’s just say that the minute I saw it, I knew it had my name written all over it 😉
Now, I’m off to snuggle with a puppy or two and my stitching while I wait on Jack Bauer 😀
Love the Ort Port!! So fitting!! And it’s TUSAL: Totally Useless SAL. There are blogs with spiffy little mini-banner thingies you can use, too. I’m sure Melissa knows where to find ’em.
Thanks Darla. I thought that’s what it was called, but couldn’t remember 😉
ROFLMAO!! It’s ARGYLE!!! Does this mean you are turning into a little old man stitcher? 😆
Naaaa, I’ll just remain the SAWW 😉
I can’t wait to see your progress on Home of a Needleworker, Too! I like the substitutions you’ve made.
Great Stitching Terri as always 🙂 Thought you would have the Green Argyle instead of the Orange lol
