Lady in Red Finish?


I think I am finished with the Lady in Red snow globe.  There is supposed to be some decorative back stitching at the base of the globe but I like the plainer look of the unadorned base.  There are also supposed to be some french knots on the wreath but I can really make a mess sometimes when I do french knots so I am undecided if I want to try adding those.
There are 3 more snow globe charts in the package but none of them are calling to me yet so I will set this project aside for now.

Have some happy stitch days.

Lady in Red WIP

I have done some more stitching on the Lady in Red snowglobe.  It's so nice to do some cross stitching again.  This has 4 snowglobe patterns which can be seen here.  I am stitching on 18 count aida fabric instead of the linen that came with the charts.
Happy Stitching!

Afghan Finish

I finished crocheting another afghan.  This is made with leftover yarn from prior projects.  My play room is so messy so I thought instead of finding a storage system for leftover yarn perhaps I should just use it up so I can see some clean surfaces.  I had no idea how this would turn out but as I was working on it my dh admired it so it seemed to me it should be something for him to use as cover while we watch tv.  Winter is coming and anything I can come up with to avoid turning the heat on too high is a good thing.
I used a combination of Red Heart Super Saver and I Love This Yarn.  The afghan turned out to be 63" x 40.5" which is a good size to cover up with while sitting in a chair.
Happy Stitching
