Floral Bouquet #2 progress

I am working on this picture 2 nights a week. Monday and Tuesday. This is 2 weeks progress, so I am pleased with how it is going. I think seeing how quick it can stitch up, gives me a bit of a boost to keep at it...I wonder if it can be done by Xmas??  Almost 1/4 of the way through! 

Floral Bouquet #2 progress

Very slowly I am working on this picture. It has been about 4 months since I stitched on it. But now I am making an effort to work on it every Monday night...in the hope that it will get finished one day soon... I am currently working on the top right half of the picture. My saving grace is that there is no backstitching to this picture. It is not my favourite piece....but I am determined to get it finished. I have no idea what I will do with it once it is completed, I do not like it very much. I won it in a competition, and I just want it to be crossed off my "things to do" list!

Knit 1 Purl 1

Here is the current status of the scarf I am knitting for ********* (can't say the name..just in case) It is for a man, and mum says it is better to knit one, purl one, knit one, purl one. Th wool is from Australia, and a friend of my brothers hand dyes the wool, it is lovely to knit with. Wow, this is taking a long time to knit up. I am using size 4 needles? maybe 5 at the most..... Normally I make scarves with fluffy wool on size 8-10 needles. They knit up really quickly. I can whip up a fluffy scarf in 2 nights. In an evening, I can knit about 3 inches of this current scarf if I am lucky! I hope I can get it finished by Xmas. 

#7 Angel - Wisdom and Q Snaps

This one came all the way to Australia with me, and I only got half of her done. Last night, I put the last french knots in and she is now complete. Here is the entire piece so far.... Working on Number 8 now, and then 4 more to go. Some one asked me about QSnaps frames the other day, here is a picture of what they look like......I love using them, the tension is perfect every time you put them on.
