DUCJFC 2016 - February 24 - Snow Guide

Thank you for all your comments on yesterday's new start. I had a plan for these last few days, but I keep changing my mind as I look through things. 

I ended up starting a chart that's been sitting in my stash for years. This is what it will look like when complete:

I used the last bit of 14 count Aida to make this start, although it's only just barely long enough. I might leave the little sled and bottom snowflakes off the design. 

I dug through my stash for a floss toss:


 Here's where I managed to get to tonight:


And this is my Dad, who fell asleep while writing. It's a phenomenon that hits my Grandma as well, so I'm curious if it will affect me in a few years. :)


Thanks for visiting and all your encouragement, less than week to go!

Happy Stitching,

  4. That's a great chart and I love the fabric you've chosen! It always feels so good to start something that's been in your stash for so long.

    It probably stinks to fall asleep mid-task, but that is just the cutest photo of your dad!

  8. My 30-something sister does the exact same thing...falls asleep, pen or mouse in hand, seemingly frozen in time (until the loud snoring starts!).

  9. Great new start. You'll have to be careful if you fall asleep with a needle in your hand!
    I fell asleep mid-sentence once. I was a passenger in a car and really tired. The driver said I was talking and just slurred to a stop and was sound asleep!
