New project

I've done a bit of the big picture, but not much. But here is a progress picture...


(I know that the pictures are not too good.)

On thursday I bought a new picture that I've been in love with since I saw it on the internet. Didn't need to think about buying it....
It is a Vervaco picture


Did the same with this one, griding with my new pen, and it has already saved me I think three times.... So I love griding :o)

A little update

I'm done frogging, it took "only" about 3 days... sure hope that those frogs will stay out from now on...

But I bought a pen that will wash off with water to do the griding and then marked the boxes with 123 and ABC like someoned suggested, so now things should work well...


And now I've started in the lower right half of the picture and will work from there, hopefully finish the lower half before I start the upper half. I'm also using my version of parking on the way :o)

Two more finishes... and...

I'm on fire these days....

Finished Sleeping Beauty the other day and I'm happy with most of her... I hate her face... just like Cinderella. I just can't make a beautiful face... 
But now I just have to frame them and put them on DD's wall.



When Sleeping beauty was finished I took up a teddy bear project that I started on about 6 or 7 years ago. I really love this picture and think it is the cutest thing ever...


Don't know what I will do to it... just wait for another baby to be born in my family or something....

And now the greatest news ever.... 
See the progress on my big picture:


Yes.... I'm ripping it all up now... I found an error in it and this is the second time that I have to rip it up.... I soooo want to cry... I still have all the black stitches left to rip up so I will be busy with that for some time.
But when I will start again I will grid the fabric so I won't get confused. I've ordered a pen that I can use to draw the grid with and just wash it off in the end. 
But I know that I  will be more satisfied with the picture if I rip it up rather then trying to "hide" it, because I will always know that it isn't right.

My first finish...

Oh, yes... for the first time ever, I've finished an stitched project. It is cinderella and I started on it some years ago... This is a small picture but I like it. I have one other picture like this but with the princess in the pink dress, but I just can't find it now.... Just don't know what happened to it...


But here are some pictures of my princess... I like it but she looks a bit scary in the face... question if my daughter will have nightmares having it above her bed....







 I was so amazed with the difference when I put the outline stitches... I was just like ooohhh, aaahhh... all the time.... LOL


Like I said, she looks like a psycho...

Here is also a progress picture of my big picture... not much progress as I've been finishing off the princess.
