Finishes ~

I just don't get it~

I really want to hook. I want to finish my Magdalena horses rug. Have I been working on it? Barely. I want to hook a Maggie Bonanomi pattern. I want to hook a hit and miss rug with hand torn strips like Cathy G over at Orange Sink hooked. (I have rug envy!) There are so many things I want to hook, but I'm not hooking!

Here are a few things I've been working on instead. I just punched this little fall mat ~ a design by Kelly Belfast. I've even sewed on the backing (and Woolfind Kathy-I've labeled it!).

I finished the second of the Pat Cross Bird Dog punch needle pieces ~ once again the back is on and labeled.
Here are a couple of cross stitch patterns I have finished. They need to be aged a bit and then I must figure out how I will finish them.
The first is a little Stacy Nash freebie pattern found over at Pattern Mart. It was charted as Emma age 6, but I changed it to Eema age 8. (Eema is doing so well. I'll post some pictures soon.)
Another Stacy Nash pattern. I don't know how I measured, but as you can see I started the angel much too far down on my linen and had to make some adjustment at the bottom so I did not run out of fabric. Luckily I realized it before it was too late.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Pug hugs :)
