America the Beautiful Progress ...



This is my large project of the moment. I do have Elemental Masks which is also a large design with over 80 colors & is solid stitching. So that one is higher on the difficulty level. But that one is on the back burner right now to work on whenever. Higher on the project list is America the Beautiful. I just LOVE this design. I plan on adding a few cities on the map, for where we live in AZ and also where some of our family lives in other states, so that my kids can see where everyone lives & everything. I am still working on Alaska on this one, but I think that Alaska is the state that will take the longest to stitch. So far I am having lots of fun stitching this design. I am so anxious to see it all come together!!!

Song in Your Heart Progress ...



Here is my progress on Song in Your Heart so far. This is the pattern where I had to pull out a whole row of stitching along the bottom & I have started restitching that row. You can see in the picture where I am working on that. I haven't worked too much on this one lately, working more on America the Beautiful & Sleepy Moon Birth Record & several of the Cross Stitch Diva designs (see my icon photo). But my goal for this design is to have it finished in time for Christmas.

Sleepy Moon Birth Record Progress ...



This pattern I am only working on a tiny bit at a time ~ but here is what I have done so far. I have until October to finish this one. The due date for the baby is October 13th, so I have a lot of time to get it finished. Plus I can't do the actual date until after the baby is born anyways. :~)
