Permin Vierlande – Weekend 6

In: Stitchings

I worked on the Vierlande again this weekend for about 9 hours. I started on the motif above my last finished one. I decided to first finish all the big motifs before filling it in with the little ones. As we will be going away again this weekend I expect to finish this one the [...]

Not only did I not stitch on Mon Seul Desir for almost a month, now I see that I didn’t even upload Week 20. Well, here are both week 20 and 21. Total time spend on the piece is now 358.5 hours. I am way behind schedule, but I was just too busy and kind [...]

Permin Vierlande – Weekend 5

In: Stitchings

It’s been a very long while since I posted, and also since I stitched. It wasn’t only the heat that kept me from it, I was also busy planning for my mom’s 50th birthday present, my own holiday and work work work. But, I finally got some stitched into the Vierlande again, and finished the [...]

Summer has officially begun here, with temperatures of over 25 degrees celcius… I didn’t stitch too much this week either, it is just too hot, and I get sweaty hands and a head ache from my hot lamp. I did manage to work on the piece one day, for 6 hours (total 340 hours). I [...]

Even though I had the week off, I didn’t work on Mon Seul Desir as much as I wanted to. I rediscovered my Nintendo DS, and I was just a bit tired of stitching. Like I said before, this page will be done at the end of June, May was just too busy for one [...]

A mon seul desir cross stitch week 17

In: Stitchings

I had a busy busy week this week, so I only worked on Mon Seul Desir for 6 hours (322 total). To be honest, I think I am suffering from Mon Seul Desir overdose. It is such hard work for such little progress, I think I need a break. I know already that I won’t [...]

Permin Vierlande – Weekend 3

In: Stitchings

Another weekend away, and another weekend spent working on the Vierlande. I spent 12 hours on it this week, for a total of 26 hours. I finished my first (center) pattern, and decided to work on page 1 first. I did the outline of the second pattern and started on the center, but this one [...]

Permin Vierlande – Weekend 2

In: Stitchings

I spent the weekend away, so I took the Vierlande kit with me for some stitching. Between having fun I spent about 6.5 hours stitching on the center piece (for a total of 14 hours now, including frogging). Although I love the design the combination of the stiff fabric and the threads makes stitching a [...]

A couple hours late, but I did finish page 5 (the third full page of the top row). This pages feature is the first (left) flag. I love the detail! I spent 18 hours on it this week (taking advantage of two days off), for a total of 316. I spent 94 hours on this [...]
