Maynia

 If you saw Liane's post yesterday you saw her amazing Stitch Maynia projects. While I was at Daughter's kitty sitting I spent a lot of time watching Floss Tube which is like a video version of Ravelry for stitchers. For every video I watched, I saw something I wanted to buy.



I was hanging pretty tough until I saw this. I had to have it. It's the Sheep Virtues from Little House Needlework surrounding Sheep in the Meadow by Country Cottage Needleworks. I bought the patterns at 123 Stitch.




I could also just do all the virtues by themselves as the designer suggested. I haven't really decided. At the moment I only have one virtue as they are sold separately.





Then there was this. It's Histoires de Moutons 1-4 from Jardin Prive all put together. I want it too. I found it here. That's a note to myself in case I convince myself I need it.



 I was feeling guilty about having so many stitching projects going and starting more until I saw stitchers with 20 or more projects all going on at the same time during their Maynia event.



 My own old stitchy things are coming along very slowly.



 As far as life goes, I consider a good day as one that I have had time to sit and stitch a bit. That hasn't been happening lately. Life just keeps getting in the way.

  1. After Maynia I have 18 projects, first time in my life! I also felt guilty because of that, but not for a long :)
    Love your trees. And sheep histoires look adorable!

  4. I love all those sheep projects. Sheep really do lend themselves to cross stitch. I have too many projects going to count. I don't feel guilty, but I do sometimes feel overwhelmed.

  5. Of course you know I love your stitching. But the sheep. Oh my goodness, the sheep! I want the one with all of the virtues and the sheep singing in the meadow. And I have absolutely no place to put it. Stitchers sound like knitters. Always more than one project on the go.
    Blessings, Betsy

  6. Ooooooooooooooo...cross stitch! I will have to check out floss tube. I have been watching a lot of knitting podcasts, but branching out into cross stitch might be fun.

  7. Oh dear, your cross stitching influence is getting to me. I love those Histoires de Moutons! The photo details of your stitching are swoon worthy!
