Cubscout finished

DS, the cub scout, all
finished up and ready to move up to boy scouts.



Need to stitch his belt buckle and change out the thread on his face. Then do the background. And then he will be done.

But while I had the acrylic paint out I covered up the white on several Petei santa's.

A small Jean Smith canvas

I finished this small canvas (Fabulous Flowers-Viola) last week using mostly DMC Variations threads with the purples being Gentle Art Sampler threads. I showed it to my DH who asked why I would stitch a big spider in the middle of the flower?

I kinda liked the wrapped stem stitch!

Petei cubscout

Ever so long ago, my son was a cubscout and I was a den leader. I started this Petei canvas back then but it got pushed aside. Now I am trying to get it finished up.

Stitching Retreat Canvas

Here's an update to my Jean Smith canvas from last year's stitching retreat.




This is a close-up of the upper right corner.

Furry Girl

Finished the background yesterday and began to work on the body. I'm using a random combination of Caron Impressions 1139, 1146 and 1144 along with Caron Watercolours Almond. When I get a little higher on her body I have Impressions 1115 to add a little more creamy orange to the mix.

Currently Stitching

This is a Kirk and Hamilton canvas for my son whose dog looks a lot like this. I am almost finished with the background and the red cushion. Then I am going to get brave and dive into the body of the dog. My main problem is that while she is a terrier she is a little more golden colored and generally has longer fur.
