March Madness 3-3-12 Update

Today I was able to stitch on my Snowman from Gazette 94.  So happy to get some of his head and his scarf done.  He will make a great ornament for a family member.

CJC 2012 All Posted

Some how I ended up with 16 new project starts on my CJC 2012 Challenge--one is already finished.   I did change my mind about a few patterns and switched them out for projects that were screaming to get stitched.  So here is a preview of may last three.  These projects are basically the same, they are Name Trees for my kids.  They were on my original  CJC 2011 list, but as time went by I scrapped them, I was not liking the same fabric and color for each kiddo--it really did nor represents my kids.  After rummaging through my fabrics I found three pieces that really felt right.

Great way to start the 2012 Challenge.  Although, I still don't recall how I ended up starting 17 projects.  Oh well, it's all good.


Enjoy!!

CJC 2012 Project 11 and 12

Well, I am a little bit behind but I plan to catch up this weekend.  I have changed my mind on a few patterns and decided the majority of my projects will be Christmas items.  This year I want to give stitched ornaments to my family and close friends and now is the perfect time to start so they will be ready by December.  So here are 11 and 12.

Project 11 is a web freebie called Noel, I do not remember where I got it and I am hoping one of you can refresh my memory--most likely I found on the Freebie Gallery.

Project 12 is a pumpkin freebie that was to cute to resist and a challenge.  Once the stitching is finished then I have to join the stitched edges and stuff it to make a 3D pumpkin.  This was another web freebie that I have had sitting in my "want to stitch pile forever".  Not sure where I found it, again it may have been on the Freebie Gallery blog.
