I meant to post this earlier this week--I took another photo of my BOAF "No Bees, No Honey" project. I am being optimistic and have stitched the date, which I usually wait until the end to stitch. So now I really must finish this one sooner rather than later. I've started on the top row of letters and then will move on to the upper outside boarder. I really am enjoying this project and might just have to see what other BOAF designs I have kitted up!
Posting twice in one week--I'd better be careful or this might turn into a habit! I finally have something to share, which makes it easier to post more often. I've got half the alphabet and a third of the bee skep stitched now. I'm really enjoying working on this one and try and put in at least a few stitches every night. I'm zipping right along and even contemplating which design I'll work on next (though it will be a little ways off yet). I think I might stick with Birds of a Feather for a while--I love their designs and have several kitted up. I may even have to frame this one as soon as I'm finished!
I pulled this design out at the end of last month, and last weekend I ironed (and starched) my fabric and put in my first stitches.
I know this doesn't look like much so far, but for me (who's been stitching so little lately), I think I've made great progress in the week I've been working on it. I actually feel like getting it out every day and adding a few stitches. I'm hoping to finish it before the end of the summer (or perhaps even earlier). I think I'm just in the mood to work on Birds of a Feather designs, but I'm going to stick with just one project at a time! Hopefully I'll have even more time to work on it this weekend!
