Football Helmets Birth Announement Update

Hi there Friends and Blog Followers! :) 

Wow it's been a while since I've posted and I have even passed my 4 yr Blogoversary, I believe, since my last post. It's so hard to believe that I've been blogging for that long. But I have certainly loved every minute of it! :) I look forward to many more years to come! :) Thank you to everyone who follows and comments on my blog. I really appreciate each and every one of you! :)

So, I have been working on my very special football helmets birth announcement piece for my friends. It's looking great. I realized last night that I hadn't posted any update pics here on my blog and was upset with myself for not doing so. But I did take photos. So here I am today, posting pics! :)

So without further a due, here they are! 

And there they are! So what do you think? I have finished with all of the X stitches and am now working on what's left of the back stitching. As of this post, I am nearly finished with the back stitching on the helmet on the left and then will just have all of the baby's info in the middle and the daddy's name under the helmet on the left. I am so happy with how this is turning out. I am just so upset with myself for allowing my stitching bug to hide away from me, causing me to take so long to get this piece finished. I can't wait to hear how my friends like this piece. I just hope that the daddy doesn't get upset about me adding the 'C' at the bottom. :) I don't think that he will, but there is always that chance, I guess. 

Once this piece is finished, then I will be jumping into the Heaven and Earth Designs piece called Hold on to Hope, which I showed a photo of in my last post. My friend that I'll be SAL with on that piece is making a lot of progress on it. But I am glad that she's not a super sonic speedy stitcher lol. :) 

Well, that's all I have for now. 

Happy Stitching!!!

Until Next Time,

Has It Been Another Year Already?!

 

Hi there Friends, Stitching Buddies & Blogging Followers!!! 

WOW! I can't believe it's been another year already since I first began my stitching blog! I hadn't even realized that today was my blogoversary until one of you had sent me blogoversary wishes! Thank you for that! :~) 

 

So It's All About Cross Stitch has been around now for three years. I really love my blog and being able to share my stitching with all of you. I love the support I get and encouragement to keep going on the pieces I'm working on. The feedback you give me on finished or pieces I need help on is the best! :~) I don't know what I'd do without you! I do know that I wish I had more posts than I do, however maybe between now and next year's blogoversary I'll have more posts more often. :~) I do think the longer I have my blog the more posts I seem to be making. I have seen that some blog authors have giveaways now and then. Hopefully, I'll get to where I'm doing that as well lol. I had thought about doing that this year for my blogoversary but as I said the date snuck up on me. So I'm marking it in my calendar and setting up a reminder so that I can definitely set up a giveaway in time for next year's blogoversary. :~) 

 


So I thank you all for helping make my blog what it is today. And here's to it only getting better! 

Until Next Time,

It's My 2 Year Blogoversary! :~)

Hello Everyone!!!

So yesterday I was going about normal everyday stuff, and when I checked my email I found a comment on one of my blog posts. I always get excited over comments that I receive. Anywho, when I opened and read the comment, I received a pleasant surprise with a "Happy Blogoversay" comment from Teena! I didn't even realize that my 2nd blogoversary had already arrived. Thank you so much Teena for noticing & leaving me the comment! It really made my afternoon!

I can't believe it's been two years already since I started my blog. I really do enjoy posting to my blog and sharing with all of you my stitching stories, progress updates and of course my finishes! And through out it all, I have loved more than anything all of your kind and supportive and motivational comments that you've sent me! Thank you all very much for that! You have no idea how much I really appreciate it. I know I don't have a lot of people that read my blog. I mean it's certainly no "Julie & Julia" type blog lol. But I love it & and I love sharing it. Maybe someday I'll get a few more people reading huh? :~)

Happy Stitching to all of you!

And Happy 2nd Blogoversary to me! Here's to many many more!
Cheers!





Until Next Time,

Wow! One Year Blogoversary Already!

Hi Fellow Stitching Friends!!!

Wow! I can't believe it has been one year today since I started my blog! When I first started my blog, I had no idea that I would make so many friends and have so many people that would be reading my blog. And I definitely had no idea I would be receiving awards on my blog! I have been having so much fun blogging. I didn't think I would be so into blogging. I mean I had tried Live Journal for a while. But I just never really got too into it. And then I came across Blogger. I thought "why not"! And I am so glad that I did! I have "met" so many wonderful people. You all make blogging worth absolutely worth while! I always look forward to reading all of your sweet & kind comments. They never fail to bring a smile to my face. I always look forward to each and every comment! Thank you all so very much for all of your encouragement and support on my blog!!!




So here's to many more blogoversaries in the future!

Until Next Time,
♥ Margie ♥

PS ~ I will be posting an update on "Henry" very soon!!!
