So many beautiful projects =) You are making so much progress =) The design you stitched for Sharine is amazing, she can be happy to have won your give away
Wow Ewa. It looks like you got a heck of alot done on all of them. I think they all look awesome. I am so in awe of your HAED's. They all look fantastic.
Beautiful progress on all of our pieces!! I especially love seeing Middle Earth :) Would LOVE to hear about your tamales and the recipe, how difficult were they to make? My husband loves them...so I'd love to try to make him some!
Love all your work, I am fascinated with your Greek Mandala by Chatelaine Designs. It is so beautiful, I have never stitched a Chatelaine Design, looking at this WIP, I think I may just have to.
Ewa!!! Your Wip's are gorgeous! I'm amazed you are stitching tiny mandala twice!! I could only do that once!! Glad your bf came to visit and cheered you up! Phew 156 posts!! I have over 500!!!
Amazing progress! Wow you really are in great shape with your WIPs and they all look wonderful! I am so pleased that having your boyfriend home for Easter has cheered you up :o) Hope you had a wonderful Easter together.
Not all that much progress, you say?! A BIG LOT of progress I say! Great stitching!

Not all that much progress, but something I guess. I put in about an hour in Mario last night with not much progress of it to show.
One thing I CAN show is what I stitched for Sharine! You can go ahead and hop over to her blog and see the full package along with reading her awesome blog.

This is a Teresa Wentzler beginning whitework ornament. A really fun stitch done with Thread Gatherer Silk n'Colors antique roses and cream Mill Hill beads, stitched on 28-count tea-dyed fabric.
Handsome, helpful Boyfriend has come to visit for Easter, which makes me really happy. Been really blue for a bit now. This is the first time I'm using my laptop in about three days (156 blog posts to catch up on - yikes!). We made tamales from scratch today and they turned out delicious! Very time-consuming but very worth it.
Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend and stitching up a storm!
