Kathy's Stitching Blog: January 2012
http://kathysstitchingblog.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 29, 2012. This is the whole picture - you can't see the beads very well - I have beaded the top most band and the two left most bands. They don't show up very well in the picture. This whole beading process has given me a whole new appreciation for those of you who stitch in hand. I am an avid Q-Snap user, but I can't really put this back on the Q-Snaps to bead it for fear that I will crush the beads. So I've been attaching the beads "in hand" and it's a challenge!

Kathy's Stitching Blog: April 2012
http://kathysstitchingblog.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2012. A month of BLUE stitching! Soone of my stitching groups is doing a monthly "theme". And the theme for April was "blue" - the thought was you could interpret it anyway you wanted to. In my case, it lent itself perfectly to stitching on my HAED pattern. The pattern is "Boulevard of Dreams" and right now it's a BOATLOAD of blue! Anyway, thanks for checking it out. Kathy in Orange County California. Labels: Boulevard of Dreams.

Kathy's Stitching Blog: Finished another page of my Quaker
http://kathysstitchingblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/finished-another-page-of-my-quaker.html
Wednesday, November 28, 2012. Finished another page of my Quaker. The nice thing about the long four day weekend with very little planned was that I was a stitching MACHINE! I finished another page of my "Love Quaker Style"- it's actually a page and part of the next page. As I stitch, I finish off any motif that crosses over onto another page so that I don't stop in the middle of a motif. The flower motif and the top right hand motif both bled onto the page after the one I was finishing. Full of busy here.

Kathy's Stitching Blog: July 2011
http://kathysstitchingblog.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 30, 2011. Well, I finished the third page on the Spanish Geometric Sampler. The fourth page is the smallest of the four pages (the pattern's not evenly divided). This is a fun travel project! After the stitching is done, then it gets a bunch of green and purple beads - that's green beads and purple beads, not green and purple on the same bead! Kathy in Orange County California. Okay - going to try this posting again. I thought I had it, but alas, the picture didn't work! Some statistics (p...

Kathy's Stitching Blog: Well, a few days late, but it was a holiday again!
http://kathysstitchingblog.blogspot.com/2013/01/well-few-days-late-but-it-was-holiday.html
Wednesday, January 2, 2013. Well, a few days late, but it was a holiday again! I was actually almost done with this block when I took the picture of the other one, so I'm not as fast as it may seem. This one has been done for a while, just hadn't done the "photo op" of it. The next finish was Ice Queen - I changed the lettering from white to light blue because the white didn't show up enough against the fabric. It may not look like it in this picture, but the blue is more visible than it looks. ACCIDENTA...

Kathy's Stitching Blog: October 2012
http://kathysstitchingblog.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 23, 2012. Finished a fun design. So then I converted the flower colors to bolder colors (to try to match the colors in the variegated floss) and made the border a solid color because I felt it would be too busy if it was multi-colored as well. I am happy with how it turned out. Thanks for checking out my blog. Kathy in Orange County California. Sunday, October 7, 2012. It is one of those "kind of" a holiday holidays! Thanks for checking out my blog - I do appreciate it! Full of busy here.

Saturday, November 24, 2012. This is where I am in the whole thing. It's 7 pages wide by 5 pages tall, but the 7th page in each row is not a full page, and the 5th row of pages is not a full page.
