It's a FO!

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. You must wonder, how "The Dark Lilac" is doing. Well, now the local Framing man can take the lead. It's a FO! I am so excited about this! And I already have a new WIP, but I have made only a few stitches. Maybe I'll show it to you here in the near future.

About "The Dark Lilac"

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. The Dark Lilac is doing fine. If everything goes fine, it will be a FO soon. I am so glad about it! I have a mountain of stitching ahead of me, so I am glad I have one project less soon.

Ready to fly and a new project

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. The Swans are ready to fly. And once they do, their first pit stop is my local, trustworthy Framing Man's shop. After that they will fly to their new home.

I have also started a new project. It is called "Dark Lilac". It's a "my condolences" - present for a woman, who lost her husband. I have met the widow once, and she has no idea I have this plan. I can't change the past, but I can show her that her grief is not 'a shrug of shoulders' kind of thing to me.
You may be interested about how it looks like. I have not stitched a lot, but I can show you what I have stitched.

A little break from The Swans and another WIP

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. I've been stitching up a storm. I haven't forgotten The Swans. There's this thing called confetti, that makes me crazy! That's why I need a break. And where did I learn that word? From the net, of course. It means...well, those of you, who have seen The Swans, you know what confetti means. It may be it's not used about needlepoint canvases, but I've heard the "real" cross stitch people use it a lot.
And how does this smaller project look like?
Well, it looks like this.

Tattadadaa! It's a FO!

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. You never guess how the LRR's situation is.

Oh yes. It's a FO! I am so excited about this! Now I can grab another project. I just wonder, if I should stitch The Dark Lilac next or grab one UFO that I haven't touched for a while.

On to the next project

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. This is called "Lonely Red Rose". This should become a "I'm truly sorry for your losses" present for a friend, who has lost both her FIL and grandmother back to back. I can't replace her loss, but I can show her I care. I hope she gets the message.

Another FO and a knitting break

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. Now "The Lilacs" is a FO (Finished Object). I packed it away, so that as soon as the frosty weather calms down, I can take it and the Lion King to the local post office and send them to the local Framing Man. He knows what to do with them.
Now that one more canvas has been stitched to the last stitch, I knit another arm of the bear I call Ascanius. Lavinia has already traveled to the next destination from here, but that place isn't her final home. I hope my friend will stitch Lavinia together and embroiders her name on her body. The friend also has to add Lavinia a face. And she must do the same for Ascanius. But Ascanius will join Lavinia a bit later. Ascanius is Lavinia's mate. Ascanius & Lavinia are my surprise to the little princess far in the south.
Once Ascanius' arm nr. 2 is done, I can grab another canvas and stitch it. That way I don't need to feel bad conscience about neglecting either projects.

Another WIP for processing

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. This is "Sorry for your loss" gift for an elderly friend far in the north. She lost her husband last year. I feel bad for her. When I found this and one darker canvas, I knew both of them had to be "My condolences" kind of gifts, and that is what this one will be, once I've put the last stitch in place.
You may ask, if I knitted between this and the LK. Oh yes I did, but that is a part of a project, so I had to save it. I will probably send it away as soon as I have all the parts in containers. It's easier that way. But here's the project I call simply "Lilacs".

Let's stitch, shall we?

Woohooooo! It's a FO!

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. I can tell you something. The LK is done! WOOOHOOOOOO! I am so happy about this!
