omg...such creativity

I have been surfing around the web FOREVER...I have stumbled across so many blogs..there must be like 100000 in stitching only...everytime I find one, I link to another one...and each one is better than the next... I a still laughing at my all tme favorite...it's called.... are you ready.... FLOSS LICKER OMG...that is the absolute best name for xs blog I have heard.....I've seen "Stitch Bitch" "Twisted Stitcher"...and every possible play on words with cross stitch....this is simply, by far, my favorite. my name is stupid, by comparison....it was a weak moment.... my url is for my baby girl...she's the "hootie-hoot"....an evolution from "Hoochie-momma" long story...... I'm trying to join a round robin.....I think it's a fantastic idea....all different people working on one piece and then displaying......if anyone knows anywhere....."The Twisted Stitcher" helped out tremendously, directing me to Yuku.......

Welcome to HELL....to the left....

OK...I just got this pattern, it's a present for my one, and probably only, loyal reader.......there are 12 different colors that I used so far...do they all look beige to you???...ummmm..nope...just 8 differenct beiges.... This is absolutely spectacular when it's completed....the opalescence linen absolutely makes it......I will continue to post as long as you cannot figure out the design... I LOVE this....I cry everytime I look at the picture.....I hope she likes it........ if not, it goes up on ebay...NEVER

.....and to the right.........

Please note some progress......I had to put this down...I'm in black thread hell......

......and straight on........

This is for my niece, the dancer...after measuring, remeasuring, counting, checking, re checking and looking, counting and looking....IT'S NOT CENTERED........oh for the love of GOD!...now I have to find a "mini" to throw on the side to fill some space...let it be known, I WILL NOT FROG

Toiling along.........

Tis is for my sister...still playing around with the "Footprints" theme...I am kind of avoiding this, but it shall get done

Finis!!!.....I just have a teeney tiny bit of backstitch to complete....probably will be doing it on Christmas eve!!!!
