I did paint my box for my Keepsake Box but that was about it. I'm home sick today and I hope to get a little more done. To sick to work but not sick enough to craft.
Mostly ramblings about some of my passions, needlearts, working on my fixer upper and my dogs, pug Aoife and black labs, Isabelle and Benny.

a ton of progress
After whining last week that I didn't think I'd get this piece done this before the end of the year, I got a ton stitched in. I can really feel the end is near. I'm fully done with four pages now with the corners of the last four to go (where the two big motifs I have left join up). I had a ton of trouble with the four carnation like flowers at the four corners of the motif that I did. The top left one had several charting errors so I had to use one of the others as a guide and then there were a couple of discrepancies with the remaining three. I just had to make them all match so it took a while to decide on how to do that but I'm happy with the ultimate end.

It's looking so wonderful! You're definitely nearing the end now!
You're closing in on a finish soon Margie! It looks fantastic. I hope you feel better tomorrow - it's not fun feeling ill in December with so much to do. Take care - snuggle under a warm blankie today and drink some hot chocolate maybe.
Great job! It's so much fun seeing your progress and it keeps me motivated on my own project :-)
Snuggle with some pugs...that always makes me feel better!
Pug hugs and kisses!

It's looking gorgeous Margie, great progress
