Advent Day 17





Happy Day 17...and there was a reason for Happy Dancing last night...I finished the top part of Christmas All Through The House.  I spent the day with scissors, tweezers, needle, and thread yesterday.  I wish I had kept track of the number of hours it took just to remove the threads and weave those bars...haha.  I do know there are over 6,000 stitches in this part!  I loved every stitch of this, even the ones I had to rip out and repeat...haha.  I'm really looking forward to starting the bottom part of this pattern later today.  



I have uploaded the gift from the Advent Box in the page above.  I just LOVE silk threads, and these are a beautiful color!  They feel so lovely in my hands...I can't wait to stitch with them!!  

I found a little tutorial on Facebook this morning, so spent a little time playing around with pictures...and finished up this one!  I think I'll print this one out, I love how it looks!  What do you think?  



Ok, time to get up and get stitching...what are you working on today?  Happy Stitching!
