Thinking

Had a little earthquake last night. I was stitching away and listening to the hot 30 on the radio when everything started shaking. I'm just glad I did not get pricked by my needle. No damage to me or mine so that's good.

Last weekend while out shopping with a friend I find these:
Do you see the one on the bottom left, it's one of the charts on HEAD see Link it's one of Anne Stokes and I'm sure I have seen others. You can get the picture on mugs, posters, pillows. Saves stitching it which is what I was thinking of doing later on. 

I've been thinking as I stitch Indian Model, I did write that after it was finished I would do a rotation, but I'm not now. I'm just going to stitch what I want to stitch, when I want to, if you want to call that a rotation so be it. I start all my stitching in the middle, I have tried to stitch page 1,2,3 ect.. but for me it does not feel right.

Another blog I really like is http://ourfriendshaedsal.blogspot.com.au/
She has kindly let me put her on my blog list, so thank you. 

Ok here are a few I'm thinking of starting after Indian Model
  

Cascade By Jonathon Earl Bowser
Stitch her on white 18 count aida
She is 60 Page's I must be nut's
but I really like her Cascade



Hammock White Tiger By Kayomi Harai
Stitch it on white 18 count aida
Tiger is 24 page's and so cute
I got the big one before the mini was out.



My lady Of The Snow by Passione Ricamo
Stitch her on blue/gray 18 count aida






Mini Pirate By Selena Fench
Stitch her on Antique white 18 count aida
She is 12 page's Mini Pirate 

So as you can see I have lots of stitching to do, I just don't know what one to start first, and I have others too, so happy stitching to all.

Indian Model Part 2

Hi all,
Did not get much stitching done in the last few day's as you see below. I've been busy reading other cross stitch blogs and buying DMC and fabric for a few Heaven and Earth chart's and even a Passione Ricamo. I'm thinking of doing a rotation. When I start I will give you all the name's and details.
Back to the Indian Model, I think I'm done with all the gold threads. Don't know if you can see them in photo. I had to use sticky tape just to thread the needle, made it much easier and faster. As you see I want her done, I have so many cross stitch pic's I want to do it's not funny, I am always thinking of my next one when I get half way with the pic I'm stitching at the time. Is that just me?.

Indian Model

What I am working on now is called Indian Model. I'm stitching her for a friend's birthday present, so I hope she likes it and thinks I'm the best. You can find Indian Model at http://www.lanarte.com/ under cultures.
My mum saw her this weekend and told me she looks like Kim Kardashian, I can see a little bit now that she has said that. I read somewhere that the pic is of a real Indian women.
