I actually have a "finish" I can show you!

I am really excited that I can actually show you a "finish" that I have done. I would never have been able to do this without Vonna's tutorial at http://thetwistedstitcher.blogspot.com. She is really amazing at explaining step by step what you are supposed to do in a finishing. She also has great pictures to illustrate what she means. So here is my little guy all decked out as a no sew cube. I am really pleased with how he turned out. This is certainly going to be the start of a whole new venture for me - and that means more different kinds of stash - whoo hoo!! I also "finished" my Finished Piece Exchange piece (not as a no sew) this weekend. Picture will be shown when I return from MB. I will say that I used Vonna's tutorials for it as well.

I had a little extra waiting room time this week as I saw both my radiologist and my oncologist. That allowed me to finally get Fright done. That is number 8 out of 12 charts of the Lizzie*Kate Boo series. I will start working on Brew tomorrow while waiting to be nuked.
I plan to take this series with me to MB as it is quite easy to see and I should be able to do this on the planes and airports.

I did spend some time in my craft room kitting up several other fall/Halloween projects to take with me as well. I won't have a lot of time next weekend to get anything done as it will be Lily's 3rd birthday celebration weekend. Her birthday isn't until Wednesday, the 20th, (the day I fly out) but thankfully Lisa is having her birthday next Saturday.

I wanted to say how much I appreciated all you for visiting my blog and leaving comments. They really do make me feel great!

I hope you all have a wonderful healthy and happy week. Get lots of stitching done!!

You did a GREAT job, Beth :) CUTE as can BEE :)

I do the same - kit up three or four items at once - then I can immediately start another once I've finished one - or grab one as a "travel project".

Great job on your Halloween cube, Beth! I haven't tried that finish yet, but I agree that Vonna's tutorials are so generous and helpful.
