Happy Friday! Fridays are my favorite days, because the week is over but I still have two days off to come...

Well, I finished the angel I spoke of in my last post, and have given her to my friend, so here is the photo of it.

The pattern is from the March 2006 issue of the British Cross Stitcher magazine. I added the Santa hat embellishment myself... It is a Christmas ornament, after all.

Oh, and in the process I also finished the jingle bells angel, and here she is as well.

With the time I spent on the dachshund angel this week, I didn't work on Day without Stitching at all, so no scan of it this week. I'm sure I'll do some work on it next week...

It has been awhile. I've been doing lots of things, other than posting here - that includes solving some Internet connection issues. Also includes cross stitching, so here are my project updates.

First, I have finished the stitching on the jingle bells for my latest angel ornament. With many quarter stitches, it was harder than it looks to finish! I will be stitching one for a friend next, so won't be posting pictures - until after she gets it!

I've also done more work on Day without Stitching. It's coming along, as my stitching nears the bottom of the design. The spaces for personalization will remain empty, as they will be done last.

It's the weekend, hurray! Fall has arrived, it appears, here in Arkansas. The leaves should be changing soon. October is my favorite month of the year.
