Beautiful job! You have me wishing I had room to unpack all my glass. Haven't had room to set it up in this house. :apologetic:

Thank you! Eh....who needs a living room......unpack that glass! The more room I get for crafts the more craft supplies I get.Right now our bedroom is half papercrafting mess.It's driving me nuts but.....what's a crafter to do?

An update on my stocking. Baby is due in a few weeks, but they know this won't be given in time. They will have it for Christmas though. After I finish all the X's I will then do all the backstitch and bring my picture to life.

And just because I'm feeling silly, here's my backside. ;)

Beautiful work. And yes, a nice clean backside is a sign of very professional work.

Beautiful work.
I'm wondering how your doll house is coming. What have you gotten for it? What are you looking for still? I know you're having fun with it!

Excellent ! I love the voodoo dolls!!

That's a lot of stuff. Cannot wait to see what you make of this! I have all these ideas in my head, just living vicariously through you. I'd love to do one, but we've got so many home improvement projects going, I can't craft right now. I was thinking: Gerald's Game bedroom, Reverend Jacob's Jesus gliding across a lake in the basement, Carrie's Mom's scary closet, Cujo and a Pinto in the front yard.

View attachment 17666 I stitched this for my mother several years ago. Just got it back from the nursing home yesterday just in time to remember Mom on the 6th anniversary of her death. I'm very happy to have this back and it will proudly be displayed on a wall in my home.
That's so pretty.

What a beautiful piece of artwork. May it hold the spirit and memory of your mom within it.
