New project

i am doing new project now called BoInk and i am now on day three of the project. Lot of black stitchings ugh. HA!!. This weekend, doing my cross stitch project that i have been doing in last 2 days. Since that this is my 3rd day of the project. The project look very well and it is kinda of big since i am doing on 14ct aida not on 28ct linen. 28ct does make the project little small and the 14ct does make the project big but i don't mind, that i got the big roll of 14ct aida and it did fit well on the top part and i am little nervous about the middle and the bottom parts. I am sure it will be alright i will post a picture later after the top part is done to put in here.
i will post little more when i get to the middle part. i really like the patterns of the project and i always wanted to do it and i am doing it much bigger lol. i will do other one on 22ct aida and i am sure it might fit or not. if not i will do something without frogging it out.
i am really enjoying doing that.

needlework shop trip


my purchases
i went to needlework shop in Jackson, Mi called In Stitch and it was awesome, i like the shop. I was so happy to have a needlework shop nearby that it was not so far from my home. There is few other things i wanted to get from there for my next purchases. Items i wanted are baby ghost and cats from Mystic, some special threads also for my haunted house project, maybe some Lizzie Kate patterns, and maybe halloween pattern book that i need to look at some more. i don't know if they can order the items for me, if they do i will be happy but i can order online anyway. But have to save more money because of the shipping cost. I will use money order for the online items.
Items i got from them, Proof by Ursula Michaels, Country living by Stoney Creek collection (it is a collection of cottages), Map of Michigan by Sue Hillis and Bluebirds and dogwood by the Vermillion Stitchery. I am so happy to have those even Proof and Map of Michigan. i am so happy. i will go there to get more with the patterns and the special threads and maybe one pattern book of halloween. i will look at the old patterns from long time ago when it was out of date that i didn't have chance to look at.
