It's getting cold so let's dance !!!!!!

You didn't think you'll have to get your disco ball out of your special closet so early, did you? Started on november 9 th 2008, I stitched on it everyday for 3 months then I gave up when the one over two light pink was almost all I had left to stitch ... Then I stitched other pieces (and finished them, yes I did ) and went back on the fucshia just recently then a miracle happened: I finished it in F I V E days. I know, I know what you think but I really couldn't get myself to pick up the needle and stitch on it ... Please, clik to enlarge
Details:


I decided that my floss had to be better organized because I used to keep my full set of DMC threads sorted by colors (because it's so beautiful that way ) but it's a pain each time you want to kit a new project )

So now, it looks like that: not so yummy, not beautiful anymore but it should make kitting a project much more easily !!!

I didn't stitch much those past days because I got addicted to a facebook game but that should change today !!!

Let's dance now !!! (it's really getting cold )

Wow Chiloe, it's gorgeous! Well done on another beautiful finish!

So what's up next? I bet it's one of your Santa's :o)

Why don't you put your threads onto bobbins in a box in number order then they're easy peasy to find when you're kitting up.

Congratulations!!! the fuchsia is beautiful,but hard to stitch, is a pretty work.

here we have warm weather, but we need rain, a lot of rain..

Dawn said...

It's gorgeous! 5 days?! Wow! I can't do that fast. LOL

Keep that drawers but buy more drawers. Put the group of numbers (like 200 - 210) on each sandwich ziplock bags (use tape to mark it) & put those threads in each bag. ~ Dawn ~
