Stitching keeps going

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. The project I have called as Blue Vase is a FO as much as I am concerned. My current WIP is called the Lady. Here are some pictures, even if they are old.

The outer border is ready

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. The outer border is ready. I am happy about it. Now the gray is behind me and black, blue and other colors get some attention. Maybe I stitch brown next. But how does The Blue Vase look like now? Well, here it is.

The group in Beijing has helped me a lot

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. One big canvas called "The Blue Vase" is the one I have as my WIP. I can only show you corners and sides, because this is too big to fit on scanner 100 %. It's not nice, I know that. So this is the  first picture of the canvas. The group in Beijing has helped me. They have kept me company, and I have let my needle go up and down. This is a wedding anniversary present. I don't know when the anniversary is, but I know the year will come that I get this done and they get this on their wall, with frames of course.

Just some more stitching

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. I hope you can see these 2 pictures. They are from a canvas I am working with at the moment. Today I've knitted more than stitched, but now I thought it is time to share you this. The picture with a basket is "last time we left the Lady" - kind of picture, and the picture with the stream is "this is how the Lady looks now" - kind of picture. The picture is way too big to fit on my scanner. I don't know what happens, once the time arrives the local Framing Man has done what he does best. It may be this still does not fit. This is something 40 x 50 or 50 x 60 size. I've lost count. But the Framing Man knows what to do with this, after I've tamed this. I hope the framing day will come soon. I stitch as much as I can, even if I haven't made one single stitch today.

Just some stitching again

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. A few of my projects have made progress. 
The picture of a single head of a horse is a FO. Others have made at least a little progress. They are too big to fit on the glass of my scanner 100 %, though.

Stitching keeps going

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. A friend of mine has said "I do!". Another friend of mine has lost her father. I have almost lost my desire to stitch, because it seems those things follow each other in such a speed I can't keep up.
Recently one woman I know had a baby shower online. I am glad I was able to make her a present. The little princess will have a blanket of her own once she will see the light.
I sure hope those few canvases I have started will get their last stitch and frame and get to their new homes soon. Right now I thought I concentrate on one canvas only. The canvas I am concentrating at the moment is the Clematis one. I have stitched the outer border with gray.

A needlepoint canvas gets more stitches

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual.
If you see a horse needlepoint canvas, you see right. This canvas has made some progress during these days. It is far from finished, but it has made progress, and I am happy about it.

Still more stitches and some strange symptoms

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. The horse canvas got yet more stitches. And as you know, corona is going out there. Today my right ear got stuck. Blocked. I can only hear with my left one. I do not know what it means. Last time I had ear problems it was my left ear. Ear cleaning helped. But the pro person had to do it. Usually I help cleaning my ears with ginger. Now my right one has been blocked.
I have taken ginger cocoa to clear my ear. Other than that, I am fine.

Stitching keeps going - and scanner is back

Hi, dear readers!
Here I sit again, talking about my needlepoint projects as usual. Finally my printing and scanning device (they are in the same device) is back! I have been worried sick, but now it works. It just needs to be done in different way than before. But stitching keeps going.
I can show you one picture, but it is not complete. It is partial.

There are two horses in the picture, but the whole picture is way too big to fit in my scanner, so this is only a partial picture.
I have another huge picture too. The time will tell if I scan it too. It does not matter if the new owner sees that. She has already seen it. But that horse picture's new owner has not seen it yet. I hope he does not peek.
