Yes, I fell under the spell again. Came across this great Old Salty Santas chart (in my stash, which is a good thing), and decided I just HAD to kit this up. It's nautical and Christmasy all-in-one. I'm going to stitch it on 14 ct. Misty Taupe Aida (like the model, yeah I'm like that). Aren't they just adorable?!
Found a real treasure on eBay this past week. I had a saved search posted in there for the Oberlin Gettysburg cross-stitch chart, hoping for the one with just the word, like the other state and city ones, but got "BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG," which I think is way cooler, especially for a history buff like myself. It has real significance for me this year, since I walked Pickett's Charge in June.
And, finally, I am making good progress on the largest and last sail. I have mounted it in my stitching stand, and that has made it alot easier to stitch (and easier to photograph, too! )
your lighthouse pic is looking great!! I cant wait to see it done and I bet you cant wait to have it done.lol. I love the salty santas. I have never seen them b4. I must see if I can find some online, they are too cute, take care,Kimberly
ReplyDeleteYou are doing a great job and the sail boats. I really like the Salty Santa s. I am a Santa collector.
ReplyDeleteThose are two charts that warrant a case of start-itis. Those santas are cute!
