An almost finish and a test

Trying to blog from my new phone!  Here is a pic of At Home with Jane..I'm so close to finishing but I have to get up early tomorrow!
(OK, it didn't work so great this time- can't rotate my photo and the pic didn't turn out so great! A better picture soon..)

Sense and Sensibility finished!

Happy dance!! I finished it up last night.  I love the way it turned out!  I need to email my dad and give him the dimensions so he can make me a frame. :) I had a hard time getting a good picture of the whole thing, so I took one, and some closeups of the different little details.. (it was stitched on Summer Khaki belfast linen-32 ct, with recommended threads.)

The pictures are a little dark -sorry!  I am still deciding what to work on next- it's a toss up between another Jane Austen pattern I just ordered or LHN's "Beach Cottage" (I think that's the name..) I'm in the mood to do something summery.  David wants me to stitch him "Percy" from Thomas and Friends- I am putting it off for a little bit cause I'm not looking forward to stitching all that green. :P I need to catch up on my Stitcher's Alphabet too- I am still working on E- and there is that snowman I put aside that I need to finish too. So many options!

I came across this picture- I took it the night of David's graduation, it's a good signing off picture. :)

As promised..

Here is my progress on "In the Kitchen with Jane Austen." I apologize I have not been better about posting progress on my projects! Now I will be working on LHN's "Winter Wonderland" for the weekend..:)

I am Jane Bennet

You scored as Jane Bennet As someone who would rather see the good in people, Jane is a true pacifist and caregiver.

Jane Bennet 72% Emma Woodhouse 69% Elizabeth Bennet 66% Elinor Dashwood 63% Marianne Dashwood 50% Charlotte Lucas 31% Lady Catherine 25%

Two of my favorite things in one place!!

I recently joined a Yahoo group for cross stitchers who love Jane Austen and her works. Like I don't find enough ways to spend time on the computer, but I couldn't pass it up!! I'm looking forward to some great fun and friendship!
