Happy Wednesday! I hope this finds you well and enjoying life. This week I have been working on getting the house fully decorated for Christmas. Let me be clear, I am not a procrastinating decorator. I know many people decorate for Christmas on Black Friday, some even as soon as the Halloween decorations come down. However, I have always celebrated Christmas in the week leading up to Christmas Day and continuing up to the celebration of Little Christmas on January 6th, also known as The Epiphany. So this is the week that I always decorated for the holiday. In between decorating, I am getting in time to stitch and surprise, surprise, I am working on Happily Ever After. As of last night I have finished the Ugly Duckling motif. Now to roll the fabric up and 3 more sections to stitch!
Here are some progress pictures:
Additionally, Sunday night I had a hard time sleeping, as I wasn’t feeling well. Not wanting to pull out a large project, instead I grabbed my Mill Hill Princess Carriage kit. This was my first experience with perforated paper and with beating, unfortunately I fear I am now addicted to Mill Hill kids. Princess carriage was finished up during another sleepless night on Monday. It is just waiting to be cut out and turned into the final object, a magnet.
Here are some progress pictures:
Well that’s my stitching this week, hoping to keep up the pace.
Thanks for checking in & happy stitching!
