Weekend Wrap-Up

My parents left on Saturday, then Sunday my in-laws dropped in, so again, not a heck of a lot of stitching time. I'm not quite finished with October's SOTW, although I did go back and finish September. 

If you compare the photos, the square is lined up a little differently in the last post. I think the part I had to finish is now the upper right and it was pictured as lower right in the last post. It's nice to be completely done!

And here's how far along I am with October:

I'm not sure why the above photo is so yellow, I used the same light and Google Photos doesn't let me edit it properly, so this is what we have. The same afghan looks like 3 different shades since it's a little off in each photo. 

Anyways, I'm almost done October, I only need to do the last 3 spiderweb filling stitches. I started off doing the wrong wrapped bars, they were supposed to be double woven, but I was too far along to stop once I'd noticed, so I continued on with what I was doing. I think they look okay. I'm really impressed with my first ribbon rose and spiderweb rose and I have close-ups on the next photo:



The pinks don't quite match, but the pink and white variegated thread has the same name as DD, so I had to use that one. :)

I hope everyone had a good weekend and fingers crossed this square will be complete tonight. November's square had a lot of cutting, so wish me luck on that one! 

Happy Stitching and please check out everyone else's stitching at the Stitchery Link-Up Party hosted by Super Mom-No Cape!
