Imagine. Create. Play. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. To Give Credit Where Credit Is Due. I thought that I would post the info for the temari kit, in case anyone might be interested in making one themselves. Also, I felt that I should credit the designer, much like any other project. The pattern I used is called Morning Glory. There are a couple of other kits in her etsy store along with finished temari available for purchase, and also a couple of her books. Monday, January 23, 2012. Saturday I decided to st...

Imagine. Create. Play.: Eastern Bluebird Finish!
http://vickieandalex.blogspot.com/2012/09/eastern-bluebird-finish.html
Imagine. Create. Play. Friday, September 28, 2012. I'm pleased with the result, though I can see some areas for improvement. I enjoyed working on this little guy; he was a quite a challenge since I hadn't done surface embroidery for years. I've got a couple of Trisha Burr books, so I can read up and try another one. Eventually. Now back to my Japanese Embroidery homework, which needs to be done before my class on October 13. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Imagine. Create. Play. Tuesday, August 28, 2012. August IHSW Report - Super Late! Ok, so I started the post on time. Really. I just didn't publish it. Oops. Well, enjoy anyway, and I'll save up my latest progress pictures for the next tardy update. :). Wow What a weekend. It all started with. A haircut on Friday after work. I made the appointment, and was so happy that I got in so quick. Except for the fact that I was driving right straight through the Woodward Dream Cruise. Brilliant! Immediately after ...

Imagine. Create. Play. Monday, May 21, 2012. Now, if I could only get one where there isn't something else going on. This time is was the Girl Scout Zoo Expedition. Couldn't let my little Daisy Scout miss that (well, I thought it would be fun, so I signed us up). Miss Alex had my parents and DH's mom there as well, and a good time was had by all. And on to the stitchy stuff! For this month's IHSW, I decided to start something new - literally. I'd decided to try my hand at needlepainting, so I ordered...

Imagine. Create. Play. Tuesday, April 24, 2012. Well, not that there is much in the way of results, anyway. No stitching Friday, as it was the Fun Fair at Alex's elementary school. No stitching Saturday, as I went to the scheduled haircut and color appointment and straight to work after that. And worked until 9:00 at night. I managed to fit some stitching in after the realtor's visit. And was (and still am) feeling pretty perky because she will price our house for more than we owe. Yay! Then a couple of ...

Imagine. Create. Play. Sunday, January 20, 2013. Catch-Up, January IHSW, and WIP Review. Well, it's been a while. Not for stitching, just for blog posting. So it's time for some catching up. My Phase 1 Japanese Embroidery project was completed during a 5-day workshop in November with Shay Pendray. I was so glad to be able to finish it there, as I would never have been willing to glue (yes, glue! Seasons by Jennifer Ashley Taylor, completed November 10, 2012. Egypt Garden Mandala by Chatelaine. I enjoyed ...

Imagine. Create. Play. Tuesday, February 21, 2012. Here's to another successful weekend of semi-hermitting! I debated for a while beforehand about what I was going to work on: I've been working on Alhambra Garden since mid-December but have not made much progress since the giant basement project has sucked up so much of my time. Here's where I started on Friday. The progress as of Sunday night. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Alhambra Garden - Chatelaine. Egyptian Garden - Chatelaine.
