She's done!

My Progress

I had Beatrix Potter in the floor stand, but just hadn't been able to get motivated to work on her. Spurred on by other folks' progress, I put poor neglected Beatrix away and pulled out Hannah for a little lovin'. As of today:

Spent the whole day at the LNS working on Hannah:

Latest Progress

Here's my Hannah as of yesterday:

August Progress

Today was the all-day open stitch class at the LNS, and I got a bit more done, after making a slight color change. The Anchor 368 was too light, so we changed it to the next darker shade.

A little more progress...

… on my Hannah today, at the All-Day Open Stitch Class at my LNS. I also got to see Terri's and I sure hope she posts an updated pic. I really love her colors!!

A bit more progress

I got a few more stitches into my Hannah today during my (and Melissa's) LNS' monthly open stitch class.

I started!

I actually got started on Hannah! Vintage Country Mocha Lugana 25, over 1 with 1 strand. I started with 3013, but after a few stitches Melissa and I decided that would be much too light, so I frogged that and switched to 3012. The quarter is a needlemagnet made for me by a woman at our LNS.

Poor Neglected Hannah

Congrats to Heidi on her very lovely finish!!! My poor Hannah has gone through more fabric-and-fiber decisions! It looks like I've finally settled on Zweigart Country Mocha Vintage in Lugana 25, with DMC 3013 for the primary and Anchor 368 for the second color. And I'm taking her on the cruise with me.

Fabric and Fiber

I have a piece of PTP "Heritage" in 28-count that's really a bit larger than I'd been thinking about, since I'd been thinking about over one on 25 or over 2 on 32, but it'll work. With DMC 3778.

She's Here!

Melissa and I got together for breakfast--and a much-needed (at least for me) gabfest--this morning, and she brought along my Hannah chart. Now I just need to decide on fabric and fibers.

I'm In!

Melissa's ordering the charts for both of us. Then it's a matter of deciding on fabric count, fabric color, and floss color/s. And, of course, silk or cotton!
