Elaine's Dark Force non-update

Like others here, I made no progress on Dark Force this month.  Zero. Zip.  Nothing.  Nada.  I have some unanticipated time off in April (medical leave) so hopefully I can finish up my current rotation project and pick Dark Force back to get some done before the next update.

March Update - Hummers

I have been soooo out of the loop! Too many things going on here to even have time to stitch let alone blog. :-( I promise to try despirately to be better with all of this in April. :-)

Needless to say I didn't even get to pick up Hummers all month. Sad. But here's where we left off last month...

Progress on Alicia, the strawberry pirate

March is almost gone and here is my Alicia... well there is no Alicia yet, just the background in 20 (or so) shades of pink...

2,800 stitches done 177,800 to go...


So long my friends,
Evalina

Sarah's March Update

I didn't get much progress this month. No new stitches put in, but I did frog several more rows of the top. It is slow tedious work and I'm so scared that I'm going to put a hole in my fabric. Hopefully I will make better progress in April.

End of Feb. 2015

Serenity Harbor - March

During March I stitched a few birds and some tree tops! I'm pleased to say that I was able to finish the full section for this month, but I might fall behind soon :( My LNS is sending out my floss over the next few months, and unfortunately they're missing one of the next colors and so haven't sent the next batch yet. I haven't seen April's pattern yet, so I'm not sure how far I can go before I reach a floss I don't have yet...

Rachel's March Update

Hello everybody.

I'm afraid I've still got nothing to show this month. Fate is working against me and it's almost as if I doomed never to stitch this chart.

I'm very annoyed and upset at the moment because I put my faith in somebody to create a piece of hand-dyed fabric suitable for the background of Scarlet Macaw Preening and she failed to deliver on so many levels. Emails indicated that she would try to recreate the background colours but I ended up with a piece of fabric more of a salmony-orange colour with a tiny hint of purplish-grey. I am not impressed and extremely disappointed.

So..... I'm now going to dye my own piece of fabric. I've ordered a meter of cream Zweigart aida and five bottles of Rit dye liquid in cocoa brown, dark green, cherry red, tangerine and golden yellow. I'm going to spray or perhaps even daub theses onto the aida to create my own background. I've booked next weekend to do it so hopefully I'll be able to post the results soon after.

In the meantime I shall enjoy reading about your progress for March and hope you've had more success than me.

Love and hugs from a very unhappy
