Merry Ho Ho

I've started it at last. 
I've chosen the Lizzie Kate design Merry Ho Ho.
Here's hoping it gets finished on time and nothing gets in the way.
I've chosen a couple of designs for September. 
All I have to do now is choose which one I like the most and get the threads together for an early start.

Happy stitching

Druhá etapa (augustová)

Pôvodne som myslela, že uverejním moju augustovú úlohu až ukončenú. Mám však pokazený šijací stroj, preto konečná úprava je v nedohľadne :-)

Takže dnes vám ukážem hotového Santa ( u nás ho voláme Mikuláš) bez povrchovej úpravy:


Teraz musím odniesť šijací stroj do opravy. V dnešnej dobe to nie je moderné. Ak sa niečo pokazí, bežíme do obchodu, či na internet, a kupujeme hneď novú vec. Môj šijací stroj je starý, má 35 rokov, je celý kovový. Preto by som ho nerada vymenila za nový, plastový. V susednej dedine žije starý opravár a už len dúfam, že bude ochotný a schopný sa podujať k oprave. Tak držte prsty!

Nech sa vám darí!

I've Sarted


Finally got a chance to start my Santa last night. Almost got the border finished before I headed to bed.


I'm really enjoying this.

Here Comes Santa Claus.

here comes Santa Claus right down Santa Claus Lane!


Midnight Santa designed by Patty Cox. 
He's going to be a wonderful addition to our tree this year.
I had a remnant of 16 ct aida that makes this a 3" x 3 1/8" size.

My progress so far

I am really enjoying stitching my Santa and have decided to stitch on plastic canvas.  This is what I have done so far.
