The Last Stitch

Posted on August 18, 2012 by quiltpaintcreate

The final stitch went into the embroidery piece last night.   The kit included these cheap plastic beads.   I like the black ones OK.  For some reason they don’t look as plastic-y as the aqua beads.  So the black … Continue reading →

April Embroidery Update

Posted on April 20, 2012 by quiltpaintcreate

Posted on February 24, 2012 by quiltpaintcreate

After finally getting my son healthy and back to school I either caught his crud or had a major allergy event.  I’m going with allergies because I never felt bad, except for the day I took OTC allergy medicine.  I … Continue reading →

We all have weeks like this.  Sick kid, multiple doctor visits, crazy busy at work, sleep interrupted, meals missed, schedule trashed.  I’m ready for this week to be done so I can start over next week. When life throws the … Continue reading →

Outlining

Posted on January 14, 2012 by quiltpaintcreate

The weeks fly by so fast!  I can’t believe it’s time for another embroidery update.  Now that I’m doing some of the outline stitching, I like it much better.  It makes a big difference.   The bathroom is coming along.  … Continue reading →
