SEPT/OCT Mini Swap - 45 entered!

[blackberrybear]

My stitching is almost done, then I just have to assemble it and I can mail it out

I've finished two of my swap gifts and have been working on my third, but it's not working so well. My swappie may only end up with two gifts instead of three.

We've still got plenty of time... 6 more weeks!

On a different note, my project is 71 stitches by 69 stitches, all filled in. I just did the math and that's 4,899 total stitches. No wonder it's taking me so long! It's worth it though. It's looking awesome!

I'm sith you Starrley! I've broken up my project into 11 'phases'. Haven't counted the total stitches yet, but so far I'm only on Phase 2, it's taking me forever! I'm trying to get as much done as I can while going to school full time : ( Geez, doesn't school understand I have stitching to do!?
Planning to set aside a bunch of time this weekend though to work on it : )

Same here, although I'm on the last phase. Sadly with 5,700 stitches, the background is rather boring to stitch.

No kidding! I had to laugh this semester, though - I'm on the last leg of my Administration of Justice / Crime Scene Management degree, and my Criminal Investigations professor asked us all to introduce ourselves and tell everyone what our favorite thing to do with our free time was... of course I said cross-stitching - I got some strange looks...

Finished my swap set last night I'm pretty sure it would fit in an envelope as long as I stepped on it a few times and used lots of tape.... I'm thinking box, though - I've seen how those mail people treat packages Now for a few last minute touches and a letter, and then it's going out on Friday when I get paid.

For you:

Glad to see a CSI spoof, but why is he wearing 2 pairs of shades in the 3rd frame?

[amneufeld]

That's the whole joke. He only takes off his shades to put them back on. Having 2 means he doesn't have to choose!
