Nice design, Joan.....I like the image in the mirror! :)
I just started one of the Quaker Balls by Amaryllis Artwork, designed. by Denise Pratt.
Working on a Sweetheart Tree wedding sampler for my niece who is getting married next June, Lynn Nicoletti's Neptune, a Halloween biscornu (dang, can't remember the designer), a round robin for Guild, and other odds and sods.

I'm working on September Sampler from Cedar Hill. It's going very quickly. Otherwise, I'm knitting some "saved" wool (found the skein at Goodwill for a $1) to try felting again.

Hey Marg,
I just recently was looking at my stash of UFOs, and saw my Neptune! You'd be the 3rd RCTNer to do it, as Donna finished hers about 5 years ago, IIRC. Mine has been relaxing at the about 85% done stage for quite some time, but I'm thinking of finally finishing him. We could all compare pictures - I think I may have some on RCTNP, though they may be quite old.
I have a new piece that needs to get going really soon, as it's been waiting for a while, and it's a class for our EGA chapter to be finished in January. OOPs. Lately I haven't had time to stitch anything though - mostly I'm looking at stitching....lots of looking at stitching....editing stitching diagrams....looking at projects....soliciting projects....looking at projects.....looking at projects....looking at projects....reading about projects.....wishing I were actually stitching projects.....

Very nice, Joan. What excitement for you!

Ha, ha. I see that Ellice confessed that her Neptune is still unfinished. L= OL Come on, you can do it!
I look at mine every day and it still makes me smile.=20
As for what I am stitching? Not what I want to be stitching, but actually a= m stitching: pre-work for my classes at EGA National Seminar in Santa Fe, = trying to work on the same EGA project as Ellice, a project for a guild cla= ss in February (this is about to take over everything - I am terrible with = deadlines), and one thing for fun which I am enjoying - Laura Perin's Pacif= ic Coast Collage - a canvas project with an otter and monarch butterfly and= assorted other things that remind me of my time living on Central Coast.= =20

Sounds like you have a lot on your plate, Ellice.
The Neptune piece is mostly finished - it just needs the beads, and, of cou= rse, I don't have the colours it calls for.
On the other hand, I just got the beads for the Sweetheart Tree wedding sam= pler and have been busily adding those. I'm about 90% finished, then comes= the framing. Luckily I'm in no great rush since the wedding isn't until n= ext June.
The piece that I would like to get done, and I know I won't make it is the = Halloween biscornu. I've finished the first side, and have to get the seco= nd side stitched, and the thing put together. If I get the Round Robin don= e, maybe, just maybe I can get the biscournu finished.

I hope so. She also does some cs, so she's one who will appreciate my efforts!
