A middle finish

Lizzie Kate - Holly & Hearts. 
Not a new start, but I was looking for Doubloon fabric, found this, and I had just the third section started.  Had a tree, a little on the house, and the pink bottom band.  So grabbed it, added all the middle block, and part of the first block, and filled is more of the third block.  It's dmc floss, doubloon 28 ct. 
Oh, and I found the interfacing, cause everybody knows, once you either declare something is lost or missing, or you buy a replacement, you find the lost or missing thing.  And yeah, this skipping from thing to thing and not bothering to finish is sort of craziness.  I am trying to think that things are getting closer each time.  Next round this pops up, maybe it does get completed.  The center did get started and completed.  Sometimes the idea is to move on before I hate something. 

Some of This, A Little of That...

Started and finished the new Little House Needleworks - Home of a Needleworker.  On 30 ct portabello since I had it in my stash, but it is the called for I think.  Two over two.
Finished size is 6 x 6.5 inches.  I would like to try it again, or a 28 ct, one over one.  But the new floss colors are lovely.  I wanted to do it in the suggested version first.  My #5 finish for 2019.
I tried to put the interfacing on the back - I can't find my interfacing...  but I know I have some.  

Started this - Jenny Bean's Humble Servant from Shakespeare's Peddler.  It's on 28 ct antique white but camera shows yellow or cream.  Using the called for fancy flosses, one over one.

Then went to Long Dog Sampler - The Token, and filled in a few more motifs.  I still love this - it is 25 count, one over one, using just a white Sulky, and that is the perfect combination.  Thread sits higher on the fabric - giving it texture.  7.5 x 9 inches. 

Then I broke out something old to work on, this is where is was when I picked it up again..

This is where it is now.  Plum Street - Blackbird Fraktur.  Using called for fancy flosses, on 28 ct PTP Doubloon lugana, one over one.  I had to look up when I worked on it, a year ago in March.  It's much closer now.  Hoping to hang with this till I am done.  I bought the other older one recently, but I wanted to put them on the same fabric - it's not showing up correctly here, but it's lovely on Doubloon. 

Eight Rows Completed

Eight rows completed of twenty eight rows.  There are eight more rows not even started that still need to go at the bottom.  Eleven pages completed of twenty eight pages.  
Need a break from it, and some color.  But I will come back to it.  It is nice that it is readable and has a story to tell. 

Letter by Letter...

Random Threads - Erica Michaels.  40 count Legacy, one over two, silks.  

5 dmc skeins used.  9 pages of 28 complete.  Text is 10 inches wide.  One over one on 28 count is much easier.
