So although I got burned out, I have been doing a little bit of stitching. I finished the Cinderella/October block in my latest Frosted Pumpkin Round Robin piece, and got that sent off. Here's a (kind of dark, sorry) photo of my finished portion:
Once that was sent off, it was time to pick up the next RR piece, since I'm a little behind. The next one is Gingerbread Lane. My part is to stitch the skaters on the pond below the middle house. This is what I have so far:
I love this pattern so much, it's really fun to work on. I'm ashamed to admit that I got burned out on the Once Upon a Time pieces, even though I love fairy tales.
Speaking of the Frosted Pumpkin Round Robin, I got my piece back recently (yay!) but forgot to take a picture of it. Darn! So I guess I will save that for another post.
The other project I've been working on is for the newest round robin I've joined. This one is sampler themed. I sent out my Halloween Quaker project that I've stalled on to be worked on, so when I get that back, it will be almost finished for me!
The first project I'm working on is Simply Jane Austen, a Motif Sampler by The Sampler Girl. This blog has a picture of what it will look like when finished. I love Jane Austen, so although my part in this piece is pretty small (4 words and key) I'm enjoying it a lot. Here's the latest progress pic:
We're taking a road trip this weekend, so I'm hoping to get a lot done during that (at least the first leg of the trip). I need to finish up these Round Robin projects because I'm down to crunch time on Christmas projects!
Lovely progress :). Welcome back hopefully your bug comes back soon too!
ReplyDeleteHey, welcome back! Good to see you're stitching again. Some nice progress being made.
ReplyDeleteCute finish!! Great progress on other projects. Glad to see you back :)
ReplyDeleteI know that feeling of taking on too much, then getting burned out all too well...don't stress yourself with SALs, working on what is fun is much more important usually! :)
ReplyDeleteHope your stitchy bug comes back soon - just stitch on what you like, when you want to and it will become fun again!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see you posting and stitching again Alyssa! Very pretty finish you've made. Congratulations!
