Early morning WIP Wednesday!

Two projects I'm working on. The alpaca is roughly half-done and on hold until I finish the memorial project. I did some work on it last night and this morning...and I was late for work because I got carried away. Ah well. At this rate it should be done in a couple of days.

The progress of last night's and earlier today's stitching of the memorial cross stitch piece

I might have to do some adjustments to compensate for the different aida but I'm really optimistic about it.

@thegiddystitcher living in a small town has its advantages. The craft store is three blocks away. Whenever I start a new project I organise my floss, see what I'm missing, make a list and take 20 minutes to go pick them up at 0.75€ per DMC skein, half if using the Polish off-brand. What makes it better is that the people running the store are an elderly couple who are genuinely interested in what you do. I also send my work to them for framing for next to nothing. Support your local small businesses if you can!
