Progress DT's Toccata IV




Here is my WIP to date.

Katrina, http://theneedlespromise.blogspot.com/ and I are stitching this one as a SAL and we are planning on finishing 3 bands each week. That way we will finish it after the summer.

A warm day!

My new project: Drawn Threads' Toccato IV' and some new stash!

Another new project started from Little House Needleworks and the block I did on Kathy her RR.





With temperatures going into the 3 digits I might as well stay inside and enjoy the coolness of the a/c and watch the Euro 2008 Soccer. This afternoon MY country The Netherlands played against Italy and they won with 3-0!! We are very happy here LOL.

I have finished my gift for Katrina and it is ready to mail so hopefully I can show it next time when she has received it. Also I did finish my block on Kathy's Neighbourhood RR.

Stitching in the USA!


After a hectic time it is time for some stitching again. The last weeks I have been busy with our move into our house in New Jersey. Unpacking a zillion of boxes, decorating the house and finding my way around here. Getting DD settled into school and lots of administrative things to be done. The major ones were getting a social security card and my NJ drivers licence. But it is all done and I can concentrate on settling in and making a life for me and us here in the Garden State.


So what have I been doing stitching wise? I have been stitching on the Neighbourhood RR I am in http://welcometoourneighbourhood.blogspot.com/ and it is great fun to see this one going around the world. I also finished the Blackbird Designs Loose Feathers' Autumn Song Sewing Box. Now I need to finish it on the box!! I also started
http://www.wyndhamneedleworks.com/Little_House_Needleworks/curly_q_ewe.htm as my little fun project. I am waiting for my supplies from Needlecraft Corner to start the new Drawn Thread Toccato IV http://www.needlecraft-corner.com/dg-drawnthreadcoming5.html and a little something which will be a surprise for my best friend which is long overdue as her birthday was at the end of March but I have a very good excuse! We moved to the US :-)
