Some of last year's work...
I used to have a blog on another 'network', but it wasn't very user-friendly, so I switched over to Blogger.com. I have been a bit lazy about transferring my photos over to the new blog, however. Today I pulled a few over, and here they are for you to peek at. The first is a collage of pieces awaiting their final finishing. They are done now and some can be seen if you look into the older posts on this blog. On the bottom is a tiny little flower done on 50ct gauze, using a half-stitch (petit point). I love doing tiny things. The exquisite detail just draws me to it. I will often stitch something 'over one' on 40 ct. even though it calls for over two on a larger weave fabric. I also enjoy stitching small, relatively quick stitches to BAPs that take months to complete. I must not have the patience it takes for the big projects.

Craft table
This is very handy. There is a large ruler embedded in the work surface. The front of the table will have a lighted display case with a glass shelf and glass doors, to show off those beautiful stitched items. On the end is the sewing machine, which hides when not in use, then comes up effortlessly via a hydraulic system.
