A Friday Finish!

I have a finished finish so woo hoo to me! This was the "Welcome Spring" kit from Cross Stitch Crazy that I finished last year and finally glued together.  This is a technical as my finishing gets, haha.  I love it.  The birds are going crazy in my yard right now; I have the only sort of fluffy shady tree near by, and everyone's pecking and kicking through the duff.

This is a Christmas Gnome kit from Just Cross Stitch.  It's stitched on vinyl canvas, which is an unusual experience, and the finish is to roll it and stitch up the back, so I'm hopeful that I can make that happen.

Rouxdolph has an X:

Garden Bunny has some flowers sprouting:

Braver has more....just more, haha:

and Sistine Chapel has more border:

 My big news is I got myself a ticket to see the Dolly Parton musical - Yee haw for me!  DH isn't invited - I'm too excited and he'll just drag me down when I'm trying to get my Dolly on!  I've promised not to go to Dollywood without him so I need to find something else to do while I'm there, but I have plenty of time to think about it. Nashville in August is maybe not my best idea but my sequined cowgirl hat is already out and ready to go!

Springy Finishes!

Two finishes since my last post..

Spring Bunny, a kit from World of Cross Stitch:

Welcome Spring, a kit from Cross Stitch Crazy:

I finished my first swan on Birds of a Feather and just realized these are dragons, haha!  I like dragons so it's fine but I can't believe I bought the pattern and got this far thinking these were swans. At least I can always count on me for a good laugh!

I started the grass on Spring Band Sampler by Tiny Modernist:

...and I got more of the outlining done on Aliens:

Auntie couldn't name me but she knew she knew me and kept saying how happy she was to see me so we'll call that a win.
