I'll be posting a pic of mine a little later tonight as I am almost done and plan to pick it up and finish it after dinner. Not any room to do a border/name band, I'm afraid, but that's what I get for using a last bit of scrap I had lying around. LOL!

Yep, I only made my pattern on the 24th, and I think I started stitching on the 25th. I can't keep up this rate all the time though, with uni and things.

And my WIP's!!!

2 pics because they are still on the frame.

This is all I got done before breaking my fingers. I can stitch again now that my cast is off, but I'm very slow going, so it's going to be a bit before I finish. I'll be sure to post an updated photo once I'm done, though.

Haven't gotten a ton lately due to birthday celebrations and only getting to work on it at night after my daughter goes to bed.

Here's a close-up of the "Sprite Stitch 2013" and the large heart at the bottom.

And here's a close-up of one of the small hearts in the corner. I decided to fill it with a satin stitch. I like how it turned out and now kind of regretting not doing it to the large heart as well.

I've only finished the first two bands and am halfway through Journey. I'm trying to at least get my bands finished by the end of the day (14 hours to go here.)

I liked this one. It's fun to do something community-made.
