No time to really chat – just a brief update to show my latest finish … after posting that pitiful progress report the other day, I pulled my finger out and went out to pick up some cheap DVD’s to watch (namely the first season of Medium, and the films Music & Lyrics, Invincible, The Guardian and another one whose name escapes me that I can’t be bothered getting up to check). Anyway, the result is this:
A Tiny Rose Garden Mandala – freebie by Chatelaine
Stitched on white linen with recommended threads
I also started a needleroll, seeing as it was the Needleroll SAL weekend this weekend just passed, although I don’t have too much to show for it. I’ll keep stitching on it until it’s finished, though, even if it means getting it finished after I move out from this housesitting job. I only have one more week left, and all my stash will be going into storage some time over the next couple of days boohoo. I haven’t joined in with any of the needleroll SAL weekends to date this year, so it was nice to start it up again now. I’m making sure I have at least one more needleroll within access from the storage container door, along with a couple of Christmas ornies to try to keep a couple of smaller projects on the go throughout the next few months.
Rightio, back to it again … no time to chat – time to get a few more chores done, and watch two of those movies before it’s bedtime. And seeing as I bought the missing 2 DMC threads at lunchtime today, I can get back to finishing off the top half of my needleroll …
Lovely!!!
I’ve not stitched much at all 🙂 Hopefully back into it soon 🙂

Stunningly beautiful Anne 🙂 I love this one!

Hi, Ann. It’s an absolute beauty! I’ve been put off by the size of the Mandala patterns, but with this smaller pattern… I’m tempted to try it out. :))
Lovely work on the Chatelaine freebie, Anne!
You sure have been busy (and quiet) lately – but your finish is just gorgeous!!
Gorgeous finish! congrats.
You’ve made it beautiful, Anne!!
It’s gorgeous Anne, congratulations
Beautiful work!!
Congrats on the Happy Dance! It’s very pretty. :o)
Your finish looks beautifull. How will you finish it?
Congrats on your beautiful finish! I love this design so much, I really must stitch it! I’ve never done a needleroll, so perhaps you’ll inspire me to try one too! Can’t wait to see yours.
Looking good Anne. A very pretty finish.
What a beautiful finish! I love all the scroll work.
Your finish is beautiful! You did a lovely job with it.
Love it! You do such gorgeous projects!
Beautiful stitching Anne.
Oh, I’m so jealous. I want to be able to get in gear and finish that design, as well. It turned out gorgeous; what will you do to finish it?
