Progress Continues

2020 - Finish #5
Blackbird Designs - Their Song.
Fancy floss, on a white jobelan 28 count.  Changed a few things.  The bird at the top got fixed.  I made the words - blackbirds and cherries - the entire word the color, not just a few letters as suggested.  Left off the initials and year suggested.  
This is Peace and Plenty - a new start from Blackbird Designs - Sisters booklet.
Fancy floss on ivory 28 count jobelan.  Part of the stuff I bought at the LNS closeout. 
Just tossed into the mix - something new, something not too big.  If I wanted to give up, or switch to something else, I would put a few threads in this as a moment of break.
Picked this back up - Needle Small with Magic Pow'r - Dutch Treat Designs.
This might take more than one round of adding to it again.  I changed the word - pow'r to power, in the text.  But it will be tight.

Another one off the list...

 Scarlett House - Samplers.
Finish #4 for 2020.  On PTP Ale, 28 count jobelan, one over one, fancy flosses.
I changed the barn gray suggested to dmc darker gray.  I liked the sheep better than the dogs.  The bird in the letter L was done in that barn gray - changed it to red.  The side building next to the house is ecru fancy floss, it doesn't show very well, and the flower tips and the rabbit next to the S were supposed to be that, changed it to the fancy white instead, changed the rabbit to the chocolate floss.  Changed the QR to the darker gray. 
Blackbird Designs - Their Song. 
This looked like there really is not that much more to do.  It's on a white evenweave, fancy flosses. 
But this is what it looked like when I picked it back up.
