2012 WIPocalypse finishes and starts


 Well it's time for the first posting of the WIPocalypse finishes and starts.  The above BBD design I finished this past week.  I stitched this for my DH and I changed the words "stitch with me" to "sail with me".  It's stitched in one color of GA floss on 32ct. flax linen.  I love how this one turned out.
Next up is my WIP of Fallen Roses by L&L.  This one is being stitched on 32ct. natural linen using DMC floss.  This one I am enjoying very much and seem to be making a great deal of progress on.

This one is Birds of a Feather by With My Needle and Thread and I don't have too much finished on this one.  It's being stitched on 32ct. cream Belfast linen using WDW floss.  It's turning out to be a fun stitch but I really don't have that much finished on it.
That's what I have so far.  I posted that I was going to start the Mini Mandala by Chatelaine....well I've determined that her designs are just not for me.  I started it and became  disillusioned very quickly with it.  That is why I have started the BOAF by With My Needle and Thread design.  This one is more my cup of tea.
I have been battling something this weekend.  Friday I work up about 1am with the most severe pain in my right side.  I have always been bothered with kidney stones but only on my left side so this one really threw me.  I took some ibuprofen and tried to get comfortable but just couldn't.  If you are familiar with kidney stones, you know they hurt like a bugger.  An hour later I took some more ibuprofen and got out the heating pad.  That seemed to quiet it down some and now I'm convinced it wasn't stones but a pulled muscle or something.  Strange!!!  Today I'm back to my old self again and as I have said many, many times.....getting old is a B----!!!!!
Blessings as always,
Barbara
