came a long way

I gotta say, I find this one much more fun to stitch than my previous project. There weren't enough color changes in my previous one. This one uses a lot of different colors to get the different shades to blend together to get this awesome effect. But I need to change threads a lot, but it's still fun nonetheless. I would've never thought that the color blue could be used to stitch a tree trunk.

I also officially lost my 3rd needle (or was it my 4th...I'm not keeping track anymore) in the car.

new project

I finished my previous cross-stitch thing with the branches and the bird, so here I am with another one. The cloth for this one is really stiff and rigid, unlike the previous one where it was floppy and stuff. So I won't be using that loom thing because this one will really leave marks.
I lost my 3rd needle yesterday. Fortunately, I found it on my bed while I was looking :)

and on a side note..

i lost me 2nd needle, and it's in my room somewhere. The first one i lost in the car, never to be found again. and this one is in my room, lurking to get me!!

Seriously...I don't know where it is, and i kinda hope it stays that way..hopefully not in a place i would step/sit/sleep on.

BIRDIES HERE I COME...muhaha

so....I haven't updated this in a while, i think because im WAY ahead of this picture. I'm almost done with the bird to tell you the truth...

totally messed up on the white part of the top right branch, added 2 extra stitches that threw me totally off...so i had to take all the stitches out to redo it...took me the whole morning to take them out, quite a pain. DX

So Susie, I'm happy to say...ILL BE DONE BEFORE YOUR BIRTHDAY! :D

..so no more updates on this til then. >:]
