And So It Begins…

I finished stitching on my round robin piece last night. The fabric, charts, specialty fibers and beads are packed up and ready to go. The only thing that is not yet finished is the journal that I’m going to stick into the package, as well. I have most of it printed out or nearly so. All I really need to do when I get home is to cut everything out and piece it together. It should be ready to go out in the mail tomorrow, depending on whether or not I need to go to the post office to send it priority mail.

I’ll be VERY excited to be able to cross this off of my list. After assembling the journal tonight, I will be focusing on the model I’m doing that is also loosely due this week. There are several more hours of stitching left on the model (maybe 10?), so I’ll talk to the designer and see if I can send it out on Monday. That would give me the weekend to make sure that everything is stitched to my satisfaction.

I know I said I wouldn’t post this week, but… surprise! I may pop in some other updates, as well. I just wanted to set expectations a little lower than normal so that I could exceed them. 😆 So… drumroll please… here’s my round robin piece:



My Round Robin Start

Actually, it’s a good thing that I just took a good look at the closeup picture of this because I just found an error. I guess I’ll be doing a little bit of frogging tonight first! Bah!

[Edited to say:] I fixed the mistake that evening and updated the picture, so if you’re looking for anything major, you won’t find it. The only boo-boo I left in the piece was a very tiny misplacement of one of the beads. 🙂

    Your RR heart is gorgeous – wonder why you chose the purple one to stitch? ;P Can’t wait to see it all finished … guess I have quite a long wait, though, so I’d better learn some patience LOL.
