Sunday Update

Well I have finally have some pictures to share with my update. Stitching went really well this week. I only did a little bit during the week but on Saturday is when I got a lot done. 

First I will Start off with Water. I wasn't going to work on it on Thursday For Our Friends' HAED SAL but I changed my mind on Thursday to go ahead and do it. I was almost at completing the page after working on it I decided to keep stitching on it on Friday and a small part on Saturday. So I finished page 37 and all the reds and pinks of the page. This Goal has been completed this month. 

After Water I worked on Chatelaine. I decided to break the parts down to parts. So I worked on Part 2 of 1 And ended up finishing it. I haven't put the beads in yet but as soon as I start Part 4 I'll put beads in Part 1 and continue that way. It looks really good. I have also started Part 3 of 1 but You will see that update next Sunday :) So My Goal of Starting Part 3 this month has been completed. 

Another Goal I completed this month but don't have a picture of it as it's all black and really nothing to see right now is Baby Ghosts. I started it On March 1st. I hope to work on it more next month as I'm working with Revelations as I'll rotate between the two.

Another Goal I completed already this Month is Monopoly Sq NY. I finished that last night at about 11:30. It turned out wonderful. So next months goal is to work on the Chance Sq.

So Now I only have 3 more goals to complete. And they are: Start FFA *which I'll be doing once I finish Part 3 of 1*, Finish Part 2 of the Mystery XII, and Finish Work Project *which I am almost done the border of*.

Well Happy Stitching everyone

Mid-Week Update

Hi everyone. Wow I'm actually on time for my Mid-Week Update lol. I thought I'd actually share pictures with you today. I have taken a picture of my Tarot of Dreams, and my new Stitchers Cabinet. I'll take pics of Chatelaine Mystery XII on Sunday. I'm really enjoying stitching them. I have been picking up my stitching for a little while each day and it's working out. I haven't done much on the work project but I have done some. I should be able to get the border done either by Friday or Monday we shall see. Work is going really well. Did more shadowing today and it was good. Actually got to type on the computer. Tomorrow we are back into training classes and I'm looking forward to finally get all of that done. Well now for the pictures for you all to see :)

Update

I know I haven't been updating. Well I haven't been stitching much or at all and I haven't been on the computer as when I get home I'm so tired. I have started working on my Tarot of Dreams I'll be working more on it today. Tomorrow I'm going to a cross stitch in and will be bringing Monopoly with me and also my Chatelaine. I have not managed any of my goals right now but will be working everything out. Work is going good and I'm really enjoying it. Next week we were suppose to have more training but they are rolling out a new phone system and I get to see that roll out. Then Training will resume. I will be leaving my work project at work as soon as I get my bin. Then I won't have to bring so much crap with me. But anyways Have a great weekend.

HI All

Ok So now it's the weekend. And I have not picked up any stitching at all. I haven't even touched my work project. I had a really long week. The commute was trying at times as the weather was bad 2 days out of the week. But I still made it ok. The week was a busy one. Learned a lot about the company and everything so it was good. Next week we learn how to use the tools. I'm really looking forward to it. As I'm getting bored with my stitching I thought I'd try working on a new one. I wasn't really sure which one I'd like to work on so I found a really beautiful one It's a new one by Marchetti. It's called Tarot of Dreams. It's a beautiful one. I absolutely love the looks of this. So I decided to go ahead and have a little fun. Here is what it will look like. So without having any stitching to update. I will not be updating tomorrow. But I'll update again on Wednesday. Until then, have a great Weekend. Forgot to add, Do not forget to turn your clocks Forward tonight before you all go to bed. For those who do.

Update

I know was suppose to update yesterday. Well got home from work and didn't feel like doing much. I have a lot more energy today then I did yesterday. Training so far is going well. I'm enjoying it. We had done some shadowing yesterday. It was great. I haven't done much stitching this week. I have been bringing my work project and really should bring it out but been getting to know some co-workers. I did get a bit of the border done but will hopefully work on some stitching tonight. I actually feel up to it. I've been drinking 2 coffees a day where I usually only do one. But It's still all good. Anyways just wanted to do a little update. This week's picture is one of my daughter and DH at icefishing.

February In Review

Wow this month went by so quickly. Before I get into the stitching update I do have good news to report. I am going back to work on Monday. I'm really happy. I'll be at a Call Center working as a Tech Support Rep (TSR) with Shaw Cable. The commute is going to be rough but I know I'll love this job. Julie who will be my boss was very excited that I accepted the position as we got along really well in our first Interview together. So it will be great. Plus I get a discount on my cable, internet and phone. I also get benefits right away and also 2 weeks vacation right away. I'm really happy about this. Now on to stitching.

This month saw me start off with Monopoly. I did finish Square number 2 which was Kentucky Square. I really enjoy stitching this as it's a fun pattern.

After this I did start the Kustom Kraft Mystery. I did not get my goal done to get page 1 done. I just couldn't get into it. I really do not know why.

After KK Mystery I went ahead to finish page 1 of Revelations. It took me 4 weeks to complete just one page. I was so glad to move off of that one. But it does look good and you can see Part of her Wing and Part of the Butterfly on page 2.

I then started Mystery XII by Chatelaine. I love working on this. It is coming along nicely. Here is part 1 finished and a Part of Part 2 that I have gotten done

Part 3 is out and So I'm going to start that soon as well.

After totally getting fustrated with the Ripples in Wild Horses I decided to walk away from it. So in it's place I'm putting Baby Ghosts. That is to be started in March as I'm going to do it as part of a contest. And for that contest I commited in doing 2 pages.

Then I turned my attention to Water and found that I'm not going to have enough fabric. That really made me mad as I already finished page 1. So I decided to scrap it again and start over. I am bound and determined to work on this so I started again on Page 37 which is the bottom left corner. There are only 1920 stitches not enough going on in this page to take a picture of it. So here is my colouring of the chart.

I also turned my attentions to playing Sims2. Who knew that game was addicting. I haven't played much lately as I'm trying to get laundry done so I have clothes for work.

So yesterday after finding out I had the job *YAYYYY* lol. I decided to treat myself with a work project so I bought a Lizzie Kate Double Flip it that says Dream and love, I also got the weeks and gast to do it with, the fabric to do it on and another Star Detailor as I couldn't find mine.

Also found out when I was at the mall that my contract was almost up so I signed another one and got an iphone. It is really cool. I have seen them before they came to Canada as a friend that I worked with at Best Buy had one.

My daughter also had her Grad photo's done. They turned out beautifully and it was really hard to pick. We decided on Image 3.

So my goals for March are

1. Finish New York *will do this at the Stitch in this Month*

2. Start Baby Ghosts for Contest in Mystic Stitch Group

3. Finish Part 2 and Start Part 3 on Chatelaine Mystery

4. Finish a Page in Water *Starting bottom left so I almost have Page 37 done*

5. Start Page 4 on FFA

6. Finish My travel Project

Well I guess I have talked your ear off so Happy Stitching in March.
