Spending The Day Stitching

This morning, Patrick went golfing and I went for a walk. I haven't done that in a few days, so needed to get it moving! 

I ordered some fabric for our group. I worked on a few things that needed to be done. When I sat down, Patrick got home and later went to work in the yard. I was playing my war game and then decided I wanted to work on my cross stitching. 


Listening to my audiobook and stitching. I was able to get the headdress area done. I then went and got SOME outlining done. I found that I needed another color in the Kreinik threads, so ordered it. I was shocked that I have to pay more shipping costs then what I bought! I wasn't happy about that. 

After the headdress was done, I got to work on the purple Kreinik thread to do the overlay in the brown area. It was fun to get that part done. 

Till my threads arrive, I will be putting the beads in. The bottom areas is where I added the beads. I figured out that I missed adding the green floss in the empty squares, so I'm adding those and then I will go back and add the bead in the corner. There is a lot of beads in this, so I will be busy. I need to make sure I "x" through the beads to make them stay and look lined up and not floppy. It's coming along great. I did the bottom area in about an hour, so that tells you how long it will be before this actually gets done. I did enjoy having fun with Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
