CROSS STITCH PATTERNS - Anne Stokes

CROSS STITCH PATTERNS - These have Anne Stokes art.  Things I couldn't find anywhere else.  I love the Green Dragon and Maiden cross stitch.  This will be my next purchase and possibly will be thrown into my WIP immediately after.

Danes in the Grove

Alexis & Blossom the mommies to be :0)

Snowy Friends p 16

Page 16 completed this evening.  I have also got a great start on page 17 & 18.  I should be done with this row in about a month.  Or should I say I can only hope.  My goal of having this done by Christmas of next year is coming to life.  When I first started this I didn't think I would ever finish it, or if I would want to toss it in the garbage.  But he has been great to stitch.  I recommend him to everyone that loves cross stitching :0)

Elf in Wood by Elena Lazareva

Here is the next one that I have started.  I have completed about 800 stitches since last evening.  She is absolutely gorgeous.

Moose - WHAT?

This is a project that I finished quite some time ago.  I just picked it from the framer yesterday.  I had originally purchased to make for my mom.  By accident she started collecting reindeers for Christmas, she didn't really but everyone seemed to think she did.  One day we were looking over her collection & realized that most of the reindeers were actually different types of moose, lol.  So when I had seen this I thought that the joke would be perfect & she would get it.  Before I could get to this project, she passed away.  I couldn't do this, the pain was just too great.  About 6 months ago I came across this again, whipped it up real quick & like I said had it framed.  He is just too cute :0)

Danes In The Grove

Alexis is confirmed pregnant.  She is due on 11/20/13...if that isn't exciting enough Blossom may also be expecting.  She would be due on 12/7/13...oh my so many babies to play with :0)

Snowy Friends pp 16, 17 & 18

I just love these!!!!.  While stitching I of course can see the birds but in the pictures the birds just pop!!!  Wow, put a smile on my face.  Continually working on this project.  I can't say enough how much I am loving it :0)

Snowy Friends

I have been steadily working on page 16, 17 & 18.  The three pages are moving along nicely.  I can't wait to finish him....oh just now at the 1/2 way mark...I had thought there were 28 pages unfortunately there is 30.  Oh well, simple mistake.  Still have the same amount of pages to finish no matter the number.  Loving him!!!!!!

Dragon Rip p 11

Just got this page finished today.  Originally started this on 9/21/13 and finished it today.  Was working on this in conjuncture with Snowy Friends.  There was a total of 7315 stitches to this page.  I have completed a total of 26,351 on these 4 pages.  So thrilled that there is actual design to this page and when I cross country stitched I added even more color :0)....THRILLING.  He is such a easy project so far.

Jeff had this made for one of our cars.  Nice to see our "name" come to life.  I have been posting on facebook for just the dogs so I didn't bore our friends & family.  So I created Danes in the Grove.  I just love it :0)

Snowy Friends

I finally finished page 15, and I am thrilled to have it completed.  Page 16 has a good jump start on it & page 17 just a smidge.  I am really loving how he looks.  Love his buttons, I mean LOVE his buttons :0)....and his vest, very vibrant.

HAED charts

I am totally addicted to HAED charts.  I placed an order on Thursday for 10 charts and then today for 11 more.  These are huge projects & I will never finish them all in my lifetime.  I guess I will have to leave them to Chrissy if the end ever comes :0).....Luckily I only have 23 more on my wish list, so at least I should have a stopping point.  Please help me :0)

Snowy Friends

Been steadily working on Snowy Friends.  With cross country stitching I am definitely finding that finishing a page takes so much longer.  If I am able to quickly finish a row of pages this will be worth it.  Right now I find it quite a bit of work.  Just today I started on a 3rd page.  Will I ever finish the first page?
