Not Quite Caught Up

Well, I had hoped to have August and September done by this month end, but haven't quite made it. August is finished

and September is about half stitched. Maybe if I hustle for the rest of the day?

And I did it! Dragon 9 got finished with about 5 1/2 hours to spare. Terrible fabric colour - the picture of #8 is much better.

Hopefully Dragon 10 won't be such a last minute stitch.

Serendipitous Jo's September's Nine Ladies Dancing

This was a lovely block to stitch, just a few spaces to add beads at the end:

Here is where the whole piece was last month:

And here is where we are now:

Santa's Bed

Well hello!

I really had to stretch the theme this month!

No Santa in ABC Christmas by LizzieKate but Santa's hat appears on this sweet little bed so I am going with it.

Here is the whole project.

Happy Stitching!

I'm W-A-Y Behind!

And doesn't that sound familiar? My last post was for June, so this will be a short catch up.

July is done

and August just needs the back stitching so I hope to post him soon and hopefully have September done by month end. Wish me luck!

Mary's September Santa

Here is my Santa for September! It is the 2001 Prairie Schooler Santa, stitched on "clay" linen with the suggested DMC. I love that it has the Partridge in the Pear Tree which is one of my favorite themes. I am not finishing this one myself so I am just sharing the finished stitching. Thanks for your nice comments on my previous entries!
