    Chief Red Cloud 02-29-08
    Week 43 and I am working on the border on page 3. YAY!!!! Yippeee!!! Looks like I have a lot done already but looks are deceiving. I have a lot of white on white to do now. All the white around the border needs to be filled in with white. I don't have to do it as the chart doesn't call for it, but I decided it would look more finished and when it gets framed you won't see the fabric. The previous two Indian's Nez Perce Tribes Woman and the Sioux Warrior were all filled in as you can see on my multiply site 2004 and 2005 so that is why I am filling the white in on this one to make all 3 have 53,000 stitches each. WHEW!


    On the left is a close up of the border. Bunches of white to be stitched but this is a lot easier then the white mixed with grey on the head band.
    .
    On the right shows just how large the Chief really is. Can't wait to start on the final page.
    .

    I hope you have a wonderful week.

    Week 42 Surprise I finally got my update on Friday actually on Friday for a change. lol Hopefully I can keep it up. I thought I would show the bottom right corner instead of taking it out of the Q-snap and showing the entire project again. I got the corner done, YAY!!! Now I just need to do the border across the bottom left and I will get to start on the final page. YAY!!! Yippeeee!!!

    A is for Acorn

    A is for Acorn is the first letter in the Erica Micheal's ABC Sampler Book. I am doing this as a SAL with Barb and Glenda. We planned on doing one letter a month and that would take us 2 years to complete. The way it's gone so far we are behind already. lol

    Chief Red Cloud 02-08-08

    Week 40 A little further along. I am keeping my finger crossed that I can finish the main part and begin working on the border on page 3. Then before you know it will begin working on page 4, but I know that won't happen this week.

    This is where I am on my Stitch Along (sal) with Barb and Glenda. It's A for Acorn or Algerian Stitch. Am so glad that I am understanding more of what to do, that is for right now. lol Oh yeah, I am stitching this on 32 ct. Cream Lugana, I have to use reading glasses in order to see the holes. lol

    Week 39 I was going to say I didn't get much done this past week, but I think I got a little more then I thought. YAY!!!! There were a few days I didn't work on it though.

    I went the 21 st of January and had some blood work done, checking my diabetes. I did the 12 hour fasting and my reading from all the blood work was 329 at the clinic. I checked with my meter and the reading was 489. YIKES!!! No wonder I have blurred vision and am just so tired all the time. My Dr. put me on Metformin 500 mg twice a day. So hopefully it at will settle back down soon.

    I am starting another project with Barb and Glenda an Erica Michaels Book Sampler. I am already so messed up and confused on this one. Luckily Barb has pointed me into the correct direction and I better close for now as I have to go see the FROG!!!! eek!
