Trying to catch up....



I have been a horrid blogger this....year....I was going to write "month", but...."year" seemed more appropriate!


So! I thought that since for most of this week, I will be out of commission, as I will be admitted to the hospital to be induced on Wednesday morning, and will most likely be there for the rest of the week, I would write a bunch of posts and post date them, so they will post during the week. I really need to catch up on my posts, since even though I have been stitching a bit, I have not been blogging about it. Ugh, pregnancy...I can't wait to have this baby!


And moving on to the real reason behind this post....

An update on "Tree Branch" This is a Winnie the Pooh piece I am trying to get done for my daughter. I started it years ago for my nephew and well, you see what has become of it! LOL. I have almost finished filling in that purple in the tree, though there is still alot left to put in the tree itself. I have also been working on the blue brick a brack border, and the yellow border on the left hand side. And I have been putting alot of backstitch in as well. So, slowly but surely this one is getting worked on, with this one, it is just huge bunches of fill in with the same color, which is great, cause you don't really have to use the pattern for most of it, just keep filling in huge blocks of color, but it also gets sorta boring at the same time!


So, there is "Tree Branch". This one is also on my "Up for a Challenge" list. I apologize for all the wrinkles on this piece!!! I stitch in hand so it is hard not to wrinkle such a large piece whilest working on it!

Lookin' good! I love Pooh - well, Tigger is my fave, lol - but Pooh in general. Your daughter is going to cherish this one day.

Take care and we'll "see" ya when you return.

You've made some great progress on Tree Branch. I know you'll see your goal this time.
Good luck with the birth. I can't wait to see pictures of your little bundle!
