Day Surrendering to Night Update

I really should be much further along with this one, but I keep working so much on Autumn Peace, that a lot of my other projects keep going by the wayside. Oops.

Thank you for stopping in! Happy stitching!

DS2N first update of 2018!

Oh man, but I fell off the blogging wagon. It was like once the Holidays were over I just needed a break.....from life, it appears! Haha!  for some reason, I'm finding it really hard to get motivated this year. I feel like a huge slump! So, I never got around to a 2017 wrap up post, or a 2018 goals post.....And here it is with only a week left of January....I may still get to them, but for now, I just want to update my progress.

Here is what Day Surrendering to Night looks like....although, I think I have a bit more work in on it, as you can see I took that photo almost 10 days ago! Ooops. Like I said.....so unmotivated. Sorry.  I am just glad I am picking this one up now on a fairly regular basis, as it always seemed to slip by the wayside. I started this page on Sept. 11, and I had a projected goal to finish this page by Jan. 3rd....And I still have more than half left to go for a finish....yeah....VERY behind!! Oh well. Life happens, right?

Hope the first of the year has been treating you well! Hopefully you're getting lots of stitch time in, and making some headway on some of those goals you set for the year!

Thank you for reading!!

DS2N update

I was able to get a bit more done on this piece, although I am sadly WAY behind my schedule I had set out for this one! I started this page on Sept. 11, and this little bit is all I've gotten done in all that time.(the bottom portion on the left) I really need to pull this out and get some serious work in on it, or I won't get it done for  along time yet. the portion I stitched was only about 1200 stitches give or take in 3 months time! I should be MUCH closer to a finish on this page!  Oh well.  Life....it gets in the way of my stitching sometimes....

Hope you are all getting lots of stitching in! Thank you for stopping by! Have a great day!

DS2N Update

Wow! I really need to pick this one up more! I should be so much further along! I know! I feel like I say this about every project I post! Oh well, at least I got a little but of work in on it!

Thank you for taking your time to look in on my progress! And thank you for all your lovely comments!!

Til next time-Joyful stitching!

DS2N update

I'm working on page 7, now I have less than 2 full pages left to do on this one! I'm getting so excited for a finish!!

DS2N....I'm on a roll!

I was able to "finish" this page (page 9) and I now only have two full pages left to finish this piece!! So exciting.  Oh I say "Finished" because there is some white I still need to put in, but I ran out of the color, so for the most part, it IS done, but since I couldn't do anything more, I decided to just move on

 to....this:

Page 7.  Just a small start, but I'm so excited, this project is almost done...sorta...2 huge pages is still ALOT of stitching left to do, but when compared to the 9 I started with I say I'm gettin' close! LOL
 thank you for reading! Hope you had a great month of September, and I will see you next month!

Happy Stitching!

DS2N a little progress....

Oh man, have I still been avoiding this one like the plague....I don't know why!  It's getting better, but I still just never want to pull it out and work on it, even on it's allotted day in my rotation. I was able to finish the first column of the page though, and get a little start on the next one. I would love to have a finish on this page by the next time I post, we'll see how that goes!

Thank you for dropping by! Happy Stitching! Can you believe September in 2 days?!

DS2N update

I was able to get a good chunk of work in on this one, tis time! I finished page 6! (Which was my goal, I'm pretty sure) and have moved down to page 9, I'm almost finished with this first column of the page. I'm starting to enjoy working more on this one, now, as you can see that the color palette has changed from all the light cream/whites of the day angel's wing, to much darker tones, which I am really enjoying quite a bit more! 

So, we will see how far I can get with this one by the next time I update!

Thank you for reading! Have a great day!

DS2N progress

This piece has really been giving me issues. Not in the sense that I'm messing up and needing to frog, or anything like that, but all those light colors in the wing there? They are driving me crazy. I hate stitching light colors on a  light colored fabric, it's annoying, and there's lots of confetti, which I must admit brings in a lot of detail, but it is a Pain in the you know what! So, still no page finish on this one yet, I'm hoping next month to have a finish on this one! I started this page on Feb. 28th.  It is time to DONE!!! Way past time!!

So, please wish me luck!!

Thank you , as always, for stopping by, and reading!! I hope you have a great sunshiney, stitch day!!

DS2N Progress

Here is the progress on page 6 that I was able to get finished, I am making some good headway on it, and feel really good about it, due to my new rotation, which I explained in my previous post.

I hate working with all the creams and light colors and I think it was slowing me up a bit, but I'm on a good roll with it now, so I'm hoping, maybe for a page finish on this one by the time I post again next month.

Thank you for stopping by! I hope you all had a wonderful month of May, I will see yah in June!! (oh Lordy! June already?!?!?)

DS2N Progress

Gah!! again with the slow progress! I finished one column on this plus a little tiny bit up the on the upper right. However! That is the last column for this row of pages! so when I'm done with this column, I can move down to page #6 My goal for the month is to finish this page and get at least 1 or 2 columns done on the next page. We'll see how that goes!

I'm hoping that progress picks up next month! Wish me luck!

Thank you for stopping by! Hope you all have a lovely day! See yah next month!

Day Surrendering to Night Progress

I have been working on page 3 of this one, it's only a partial page, so it shouldn't take too long, and I hope to be done with it, and down to page 6 (directly under 3) by the time I share this one again. I would really like to finish this piece this year, but something tells me I will get close, but won't quite make it. But that's alright. Then I should have two Full coverage piece finishes to celebrate next year!  (Autumn Peace and this one) But I will push on! There are only three partial pages (3,6, and 9) then two full pages (7 and 8) and some fill in on page 5, and this one will be DONE!!!  I'm super excited!

Thank you for reading! Hope you are having a great day! See yah next month!

Another "finish!!

I finished DS2N page 2- FINALLY!! 

So! This one is just moving along! Next I will be sharing Flower Bride. See yah in about 5 days!

Stitching all the light colors in that wing is such a pain!! It's coming along though. 

I won't be getting much stitching in now until the 3rd of March because my mom is here visiting for my daughters birthday. But that's ok. We're having a nice time visiting.

As proof, this week I have only stitched 4 hours and 45 minutes! (Since Monday the 15th) oh well. I'll catch up after she leaves... Maybe. Ha ha! 

Thank you all for stopping in! Hope you all have a great week! 

DS2N progress!

After 10 more days of work on it:

I'm now working on column 6. 

I think I've decided to only post every 10 days or so instead of every 5. I feel like this is getting monotonous, because I'm basically showing the same project over and over and over. 

Anyway, next time I post I hope to be on column 9. Then there will just be one more left to go to finish the page. We will see how that goes. I'm shooting for a page finish by Feb. 14 on this, but we will see....

I hope every one has a great week. Happy February!!

Today:

The "day" angel has a face! I was able to complete all of columns 2 AND 3 and get a pretty good start on 4. 

I've made it a daily goal to completely fill in 2 10x10 blocks a day. If I am able to keep up with this goal, then I will be able to stay on track and complete this page by my estimated goal date of Valentine's Day. My goal is to finish 10 more 10x10 blocks by the time I update again. We will see how I do.

Today:

I am 25 stitches shy of finishing column 2 on this page. My goal was to finish column 2 by the time I posted today, but close enough. I'm gonna shoot to finish column 3 by the time I post again on the 20th! 

Hey! Look! I posted on time this go around! 

Thank you so much for the kind comments on my last post, and reminding me that I'm not alone when it comes to sometimes time not being on my side. Sometimes life is like that. We just keep on chugging and eventually things fall into place.  After I posted about my frustration it seemed like things started sorting themselves out in my favor, I'm feeling more organized and getting caught up on some things. Life is good!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! See yah on the 20th!

I feel as if there is hardly any change at all!! I don't know what my deal is, I've not been stitching as much, and both my latest posts (my previous one and this one) were late.... I feel just kind of out of it lately, and I can't seem to pinpoint why. It's frustrating me! I feel like I'm behind in EVERYTHING!! Housework, stitching, blog posts, writing.... I need more hours!! 

I just feel scattered.... I need to get it together. 

Ok I'm done venting! Thank you for listening! 

And thank you for stopping by.

Last time I posted (way back at the end of August!)

After the last 7 days (yes, I'm late in posting! Oops!)

I'm now working on page 2. It's been slow going as there is a lot of confetti in this particular area. I'm hoping it starts picking up soon. 

Thankyou for stopping by! Hope you have a great weekend!

DS2N page #1 complete!

5 days ago:

Today:

I was able to finish this page by my goal of Aug 20th, so I'm really happy about that! I LOVE that you can see her whole face now!!! I had to include a little bit of the page underneath to get the whole face so here's JUST page 1:

And here is what the piece looks like in its entirety so far:

So I guess the next time I pull this out, I should be able to stitch in the whole face/head of the "day" Angel. So that'll be cool!  I am so in love with this one, and would love to keep working on her, but I am gonna be a good girl and switch to the next project in my Rotation which will be " Web of Life". And I'm guessing to get my next page finish on it won't take very long, a week? Two tops, then it's back to Sea of Roses (HAED), so looking forward to that! 

I hope you're all having a wonderful week, filled with stitches. Thank you for stopping by, and I'll see yah next time!
