Cinderella's Castle by Kate

I've been absent from blogland for awhile; our house has been the infirmary lately. All four of us have been sick at least once in the last six weeks. I managed a few stitches in Cinderella's Castle.

Where I was last month:

Where I am now:

Everyone's progress is looking terrific! 

Happy stitching :-)

Sarah's September Update

I got a little bit done in September.

Last month...

Then I added my new frame....

And now I'm here...... (Too bad the frame covers the stitches at the top. But I know they are still there. LOL.)

Everything below the ruler is new.

Leonore's September (Non) Update

Hello everyone, I hope you're doing fine ^_^ I'm just going to leave this really quick post here, as I'm on a business trip and my internet collection is less than substellar, before the window to post is up.

I didn't work on DF this month again, so I'm only going to use this space to comment on this month's topic, which is Halloween, if I recall correctly :D Now my stance on this holiday is a bit bipolar. You have to know that Halloween isn't natively celebrated around here, but people are slowly catching up - because everthing that comes from the US has to be waaaay cooler than everything else, of course! The thing is, we have our own holiday of St Martin for kids in early November, that involves lanterns and dressing up and fun (I'm going to post a bit more about that on my own blog soon). I personally grew up wit St Martin, and I loved it - but now it's slowly getting replaces by Halloween. So I don't particularyla like that one :(

I do like Halloween decorations and especially stitching, though! There are so many cute patterns with pumpkins and bats and spooky things. In fact, I'm working on a Halloween piece right now - it's the Halloween Spooky Sampler by The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery, and tons of fun to work on!

September Unspoken

I was very unfocused in September so no page finish yet :D  Maybe next month.

I did do a very few stitches on page two to keep a line from forming and/or to finish off a length of floss.

I don't decorate for Halloween - it's too rural where I live; the schools have Halloween parties and we don't get trick or treaters 'cause they are all at the schools.  I save my energy for the Christmas decorating!  It's a big thing to drive around and look at people's Christmas decorations and last year I finally had a few cars stop to look at mine.  So silly but so fun!

Dede's September Progress

I use to decorate more for Halloween but as I get older I don't like the hassle of getting out and putting away so just decorate for fall.  A few stitched Halloween pieces are hung but that is it.

Not a large amount of progress this month but I had a start and finish of another piece.  I have a small house done and working on the large house in Sparrow. Previous months progress and as of today:

I stitched Hands on Designs -Everyday Sampler Banner for one my nephews and his wife.  This is the second time I have stitched it.  I love the design and plan to do the actual sampler for myself. 

Keep stitching! Dede

Susan's September Check-in

My stitching mojo went on walk-about this month.  I did little bits here and there but there wasn't any real quality (or quantity) stitching time.  Not to say there wasn't progress, just not as much as I had hoped.

When last you saw Shakespearean Fantasy, it was here:

and when I put it away a week or so ago, it was here:

 

That is half and a little bit more of page 1.  I am getting my rotation back on track starting this week, in the hopes of kick starting my mojo.

 

Oh yes, this month's question.  I don't decorate for Halloween.  I never really have.  I have two stitched Halloween pieces, Scardey Cats by Lizzie*Kate and a Jack-o-Lantern that was part of the Secret Needle Night from The Silver Needle and most of the time I forget to put them out.  I do have three others: Sleepy Hollow  by Gledon Place; Sleepy Hollow by Crossed Eyed Cricket; and, Skelton Crew also by Cross Eyed Cricket in my stash. 

September.

September's Progress

I have started to get the outline of the Emerald City tower!  I am really enjoying seeing this progress bit by bit and I am really psyched to see more and more. Here's to everyone enjoying their projects and enjoying this wonderful hobby!

Happy stitching!!

Halloween!

I totally celebrate Halloween.  I love getting dressed up and making Halloween drinks.  The only problem is that I never know what I'm doing.  One year I threw a party, we would sometimes buy tickets for the Disney party.  This year I don't know since we're in a new state.  But I love Halloween stitching and decorating.  I only have half of a Halloween stitch done so far but I divided the pattern into 4 pieces do I can still decorate.

Hi Everyone

Well fall is upon us and Halloween and Christmas is around the bend.

Question for this month: Do you celebrate Halloween? If so what do you do and how do you decorate? Do you like to stitch Halloween patterns too???

I have a 3 almost 4 year old spiderman wanna be so I will be taking him out for Halloween this year. Last year he was to afraid to go out but now I think he is a little more aware that he will get candy.

My stitching bug has flew away again, I have been trying to put a few stitches in my tiger but I am struggling.

Linda's Cinderella Castle

Again, I only stitched on this for 3 days.  I'm always surprised at how much I have gotten done.

Ouch!

Not a great month stitchy-wise.  We've been mostly focused on moving so I don't have much to show but I did finish a page which was all confetti and started the next bit.

Last time I was here:

Now I'm here:

 It's hard to see the first pic because that's my setup in the car but I got a few orange stitches in and the rest of the word.  

Today we're in New Orleans so I'm off to have some fun :)

Cinderella's Castle by Kate

I filled in quite a bit this month, adding several more shades of blue.

Where I was last month:

Where I am now:

Very soon I'll be stitching on the castle! 

Happy Stitching!

August's Progress on Wizard of Oz

Well, I managed to do a little bit on the Wizard this month. I'm getting very close to the Emerald City tower - I can hardly wait!

Happy stitching!
