Stitch Maynia Day 24 Patriotic Heart

Day 24: Patriotic Heart from Kincavel Krosses. I am adjusting the U.S. Flag to make a Taiwan Flag version.



I really didn't have too much time to devote to stitching on this day.  This is stitched 3 over 1 on 14 count Aida fabric.

When finished it will hopefully look like this.

See you soon...Happy Stitching!

Stitch Maynia: Day 23 Summer House

Day 23: A small start on Brooke's Books Summer House next to her Winter, and Spring.



I really didn't get much done on this design but a start is a start!

Happy Stitching!

Stitch Maynia: Day 22 Teachers Touch Tomorrow #2 and 4th Finish of 2016!

Day 22: Teachers Touch Tomorrow #2 and a FINISH of version #1!



Here is some more progress...



And a finish!



Here are both of these finishes side by side.



I managed to both stitching finishes into FFO's just in time for my daughter's last day of school:)  I plan to share some photos of that in a later post.  Until then...Happy Stitching!

And here is how far I got on the first day stitching.



This challenge has really helped me finally use a lot of my stitchnmomma fabric that I purchased when I started this blog. I have decided to stitch the Olympic Challenge in Stitch Maynia on Facebook so I will get back to this on the day when you stitch something with white.  Until the next time...Happy Stitching!

Stitch Maynia: Day 20 Rainbow Eye

Day 20: Rainbow Eye by Love Thy Thread. 



This is my first time using Magic Guide 25 count, second time parking and I am hooked because the second hundred stitches went so much faster than the first hundred!  I really was drawn to the rainbow colors in the eye makeup of this design.  I haven't stitched on it again since I started it on May 20th.  Since the count is so small I am doing this in tent stitch with 2 strands one over one. 

See you soon...Happy Stitching!

Day 19 Stitch Maynia: Disney Dreams Beauty and the Beast Falling in Love

Day 19: Disney Dreams Beauty and the Beast Falling in Love



Beauty and the Beast has always been one of my favorite Disney movies.  This was given to me as a Christmas gift in 2013 by my Mother In Law.  I have wanted to start it for a long time and with the Stitch Maynia challenge I finally did!  I only got a bit of the green started around the bottom of the castle in the very center of the design.  Hopefully I can work on it again soon.  I really do need to make up some sort of rotation and see if that would help me now that I have so many WIPS.

Until the next time...Happy Stitching!

Stitch Maynia: Day 18 American Flag Quilt Sampler

Day 18: American Flag Quilt Sampler by Rosewood Manor. This is how far I got in only an hour😎



I have had the pattern for this in my stash for awhile after seeing a few fellow bloggers stitch it, and I had really been aching to start this!  When I first started stitching I never would have considered starting this design but I guess my taste has changed a bit and I am drawn more towards primitive designs than I used to be.

So far it seems to be stitching up quite quickly.  I haven't had a chance to stitch on this again but I really should.  It is stitched on 18 count Aida.  There are a few fractional stitches but hopefully it won't be too bad on the Aida.

See you soon...Happy Stitching!
