A Change in My Rotation I've made up my mind, I'm going to change my rotation rules. Instead of a lottery system, I will instead just stitch on what I want for awhile. I feel wild! I will give myself one week to work on the wip, then I'll post my blog post as usual showing my progress.  Progress on Still Life with Tangerines  Here's how far I got: Oh my gosh I love that peel on the bottom. Is it just me, or does it look a bit like a shrimp?  Next in the Rotation is... Drum roll, drum roll, drum roll... Contemporary Flag!  Happy Stitching! Marisol

Another Week of Tangerines, and Thinking of a Change in my Rotation  I'm so enjoying working on Still Life with Tangerines! Because of that, I've decided to work on it for another week, it's such an appropriate summer wip. Also thinking of maybe stopping my lottery for a bit. Have to give it some thought. Progress on Still Life with Tangerines  Here's what it looks like right now: Look at that peel! The Luca S. designers are really good. The shading is incredible, it feels more like a watercolor than cross stitch. See everyone next week! Maybe I'll change my rotation rules, maybe I'll make a new start. But I'll definately drool over a Riolis kit! See you next week, and Happy Stitching! Marisol 

It's so hot, I'm melting, I'm torn. It's absolutely beautiful outside; but it's also really, ridiculously hot. At the same time that I want to stand in the sunshine, I want to stand in front of an A/C. Progress on Linen & Threads Mystery Sampler Decided to give this one more time, but not sure if I've made an equal amount of progress. What do you think? Here's what it looked like the last time you saw it: And here's what it looks like now: I'm so enjoying this chart! Next in the Rotation is...  Drum roll, drum roll, drum roll... Still Life with Tangerines! This one is so pretty, looks like a watercolor! Happy Stitching! Marisol

Happy Independence Day! Hope everyone had a lovely Fourth of July! Posting this a few days late, but if you still have that patriotic Independence Day spirit, and a need to stitch something along those lines, click the link and stitch away. Or add it to your stash for next year :) The link to the chart is here Happy Stitching! Marisol
