She's an Angel!


I spent all of my stitching time on the Angel for the last 2 days and the result is...ta daaaa. She still needs lots of work but...
I know... I know... if you keep working on it, it WILL get done. I'm quite impressed with the way she looks.

Today I promised myself I would finish the top left corner of the Celtic knot and I did. I put a quarter on it so you can see how teensy weensy it is. [25ct] I AM in love with over one. But can't do it for long. My eyes are old I guess because they do fail me once in awhile. Not magnifying yet!!! Soon I think!

Tonight I will work on Bling while I watch the Ball Game on TV. It is a bit easier to work on then the others. I don't really watch the Ball as much as I listen, then, look at the replays...Works for me!

I wish you all a wonderful weekend and thank you for your lovely comments.
Stitch with happy fingers.

I love your Celric Knot piece. I love one-over-one on 25ct. And the angel is coming beautifully as well.

Angel is looking so pretty, and your Celtic piece is lovely. I can't believe you are doing it over one without a magnifier.
