August Ends

1. 10 hours on Anna's Bird See it here.
2. 10 hours on Enchanted Alphabet--I did put in a couple of hours, but we've been spending a lot of time painting, since we're taking up the carpets this weekend. (This makes sense to the dude.)
3. Finish the stork birth announcement--I came very close. I just need to finish the birthdate, but I screwed up two letters in the name of the month, and I had to take it out.
4. Start second hardanger napkin ring. Just not in the mood for white-on-white I guess. This is what I did on the bus instead (photo).
5. 10 hours on the French knot mermaid I got so much farther than I thought I would on this!
6. Start "Once the Ocean Called My Name" And finished! See it here.

Love the "Once the Ocean Called My Name" finish! (And your earlier reference to Mel G. and link to Subversive Cross Stitch has got me thinking of some funny gift ideas. ;>)

You've made some great progress this month with stitching, even with painting. I love your inspiration room from Bella Dia. I can't wait until the day where I post up and say "this is the room I want - Anna's craft room"! ; )

I really like Anna's bird! Love the little bunny project, too. It is on my "things to do" list...
