Year in review and WIP

Well for about a year now I've been really into cross stitching.  I've finished a few smaller projects but this monster is my current WIP. It was started June 8, 2025 and is currently 30% complete.  81,976 stitches complete - 191,302 stitches to go                                      This is what the finished project will look like. Projected finish is early October 2026. Year in review Zelda - 67540 stitches I haven't decided what I'm doing with this one yet.

Hoppy Easter!

 Hoppy Easter (cheesy I know!) Finished in time for Easter. Peeps have been a tradition in our family every Easter so when I found this Peeps Bunny pattern I had to make them. Added button tails and they are just so adorable!! I did add a zipper to it and made a plain white pillow to stuff inside. Since it's the perfect size for on the rocking chair now I can make other covers and switch them out seasonally. Pattern is by Jen Ofenstein of SewHooked.com and is available at https://sewhooked.com/2017/03/03/free-pattern-friday-peeps-bunnies/

Don't Blink!

I can't do a Doctor Who themed quilt and not represent one of my all time favorite episodes, Blink!!  Love the Weeping Angels! So to go with my Silence in the Library quilt I have for you the Weeping Angel bookshelf block. Enjoy and don't blink!! She does have a lot of embroidered details. You don't have to go as detailed as I did if you don't like embroidery. You could just do the hands and arms and I think that would still be awesome! Block size: 10 x 10 Difficulty: 3 Pattern UPDATE: I added a new version with DVDs instead of the book. Here is a link to the page for the updated version  Weeping Angel version 2 This pattern is free for personal and non-profit use only. Not to be used for manufacture or distribution.
