12 Days - Update 21

Just around the corner. Literally. Then the beads and to have it finished.

12 Days - Update 20

The 12 days part of 12 Days has been backstitched! I still have to do the rest of the red robe, but at least you can tell what each of the days are now. The cow was a little lost, and the goose just looked like a smudge on leaves (maybe leaves).

The gold trim outside of the purple border is proceeding. After that, beads!

12 Days - Update 19

The filling in is complete for the 12 days, and I am working on the pattern outside the purple border and will start completing the backstitching.

12 Days - Update 18

The 8 maids are finished - now to finish the 6 Geese.

12 Days - Update 17

Well, I took the cow by the, uh, horns, and the 8 Maids are almost complete - just a matter of filling in with white and then backstitch, of course. Started on the leaves for the 6 Geese.

12 Days - Update 16

Productive weekend. Even did some stitching outside. Stitched to football games, while my daughter played in the treehouse at my place, and even while trick-or-treaters knocked during a Mel Brooks marathon at Lexy's house on Halloween. And all to absolutely gorgeous weather.

SO here we are. Two turtle doves, 6 geese a-laying, and 8 maids a-milking left to go. I finished the Space Invader Flowers on the bottom. I may leave the robe for last - those swirling reds are really annoying.
