Alright…here’s the updated pix of “Pillar” as of last night.  I think it looks pretty darn AWESOME!!

I just need to finish the wings, robe and the rocks she’s sitting on.  Shouldn’t take too much longer.  WooHoo!!

I hope this will give me some extra traffic and generate some more interest in what I’m trying to do.

I’m still working on “Pillar” and plan to do some more today.  Sorry an updated pic hasn’t surfaced yet.  Been SO busy w/the kids ‘n’ stuff.

Found some more pix to use for inspiration (vintage greeting cards).  So, those will probably become patterns in the future.

I guess I’d better get to stitching and see what I can get accomplished.

Drop a line anytime.

 

OK, here we go…. June 7, 2008

I resubmitted my patterns last night and…THEY LIKE THEM!!!

The only drawback right now is that they’d like pix of the finished product (I know this and am trying SO hard to get something done) and need to resubmit the patters w/pix and a bunch of other stuff.

I’ll also need to get a biz acct set up, so I can accept Paypal.  Anybody got an extra $100 laying around??  J/K.  :-D

“Pillar” is coming along nicely and I’ve got plans to work on that tonight.  My goal is to finish it by the end of summer.  Then, I can start working on stitching examples of the other patterns.

Wish me luck and drop me a line sometime.

 

WooHoo!!! June 7, 2008

Well…let me tell ya…its been a CRAZY Friday!!

The boys and I spent all day at the movies (watching previews for work).  I don’t want to go to the movies for awhile now.  Almost had an accident b/c some goober decided to stop in the middle of street to let someone make a left.  Not at a red light, just in the middle of University near Target!!  Those who live in LBK know what I’m talking about.  It was in no way going to be my fault, but luckily, my brakes worked and disaster was avoided.

I finally got in touch w/the cross stitch site where I’d like to submit patterns.  The way I was exporting them made them HUGE, so she asked if I could make them smaller.  ???  She gave me a tip to export them directly from DigiStitch to my PDF program.  I tried it and it WORKS!!!!  So, I resubmitted 3 of my patterns to her and hopefully, I’ll hear from her this weekend.

Since today has improved w/in the last hour, I’m going to post one of my patterns for ya’ll.  If somebody wants to stitch it and write me back with a critique that would be awesome.

I’m posting “Rub a Dub Dub”, so please enjoy.   rub-a-dub-dub
