Nearly Finished!

So close to a finish I can taste it! Just have a tiny bit of a page left, another leaf or so and; done!

Here's where I'm at right now:

Who needs food and sleep right? I should just spend all 24 hours of my day stitching until I cross the finish line 😂

Feeling Fall in the air (at least I will be soon) I also had the irresistable temptation to pick up one of my Fall wip's. I decided to pick up J is for Jack-O-Lantern by Prairie Schooler. Made some nice progress on that lovely pumpkin. Here's what it looks like now:

Pretty nice, right? Love that shape. Also, the fabric that my Q-Snap is resting on is a project bag that my Mother made for me. You can never go wrong with polka dots. 

Happy Stitching!

Gloomy Weather Reading, Phoenixes, and a Promo Code

  Photo by Elaine Howlin on Unsplash Happy Pride and Prejudice Day! In honor of this wonderful day, I will not only be watching Pride and Prejudice later (the 1995 BBC one) I’m also sharing a list of the Jane Austen, and Austen-ish cross stitch patterns that I’ve made. By the end of this post, you’ll have Mr. Bingley wondering at all the accomplishments cross stitchers have these days ;) Regency Silhouettes: There are two charts here, and I like to think that they’re Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy.
