Here is Lilies end of January. I have had a great time stitching this month. The rest of this page is largely light colors and largely confetti. So let us see how much of agitated stitching happens!
I am over 61% done in this project so far. I also know i have 2 more BIG pages to do, the rest of the pages are going to give me more time with my other stitchy projects. Just that thought makes me happy and giggly.
Here is Mary, i am currently working on the last part of this SAL. I loved stitching this, and this will be my first finish too of the year. There are couple of more SALs starting in Sticklounge, and i am eager to start them whenever they are rolled out.
I also have some gift stuff to stitch. I still have time (till like middle of the year), but i think i will soon put my thinking cap on:) There are two other SALs (one needleroll, and another in SMO forum, called Birthday Village - thanks Annie for the enabling, LOL), hope to start them soon and show those pics too
The past weekend there must have been angels walking with us. My husband had some 'work' to be done in one of the happening parts of Bangalore, so it was kind of a day out for my husband, my son and myself. I could also go to my favorite second-hand bookshop. Since my husband knew my love (addiction?) for books, i told him i will take only FIFTEEN minutes, and he obliged!! I dont think he relaxed though till i came out before those minutes elapsed!! I got myself these 3 books. Binchy's Scarlett Feather, Kristin Hannah's Distant Shores (Kristin had come up in my to-be-read list thanks to 123MB) and Ruth Hamilton - had not heard of this author before. I have got her 'Nest of Sorrows', and i really hope i like the book and the author's way of writing. We also had lunch out - a very rare thing for us, and that made my day. I hope we go out like this oftener.
T has not been keeping all that well the past two days. Cough and then fever from Sunday night. He is much better today, although he is very weak:( Not his chirpy pleasant active self - am sure in a day or so, he will be his normal self.
Wishing you all a great week ahead! Thanks for your wonderful comments, and hope this post gets showered too:)
Great progress on your Lilies! I am in love with your Mary Poppins SAL. It was one of my favorite movies growing up!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a nice outing. Hope your DS starts to feel better soon!
You are moving well with the Lilies and the other design is looking beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHope your son feels better soon.
Beautiful progress Sharmila.
ReplyDeleteI hope your son feels much better soon.
Congrats on your great progress!
ReplyDeleteHope your son is fine now.
Wow! YOu got a lot done on Mary!
ReplyDeleteBoth your projects are really coming along well. I just love the Mary Poppins piece.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm so glad I could enable you to do the SMO Village! It seems like so much fun.
Oh my, Sharmila, you made some considerable progress on both of your WIPs. I just love Mary Poppins, it's such a pretty project. And I'm already very curious what the Lilies will lokk like when finsihed. THose HAEDs are such large projects that I still haven't started on the one that I once bought. I think I'll wait until I'll be retired and will spend my whole days stitching, lol.
ReplyDeleteHoping T is much better now!
ReplyDeleteWow! You have made amazing progress on Lillies!! Good job!! I actually pulled my HAED out this week after...a year? and I'm loving Mary!! Haven't seen this one before...it's adorable!
