Baby Finish

I have finished Della's baby's birth piece. I love it. It's not what I would choose for my nursery if I had been stitching way back then. But I'm hoping it will be something that will go with her nursery design. I'll post a picture as soon as I get it laundered. It will have to wait until after the baby is born to finish the personalization, of course. She has got a lot of me in her baby gift. A cute crocheted baby afghan,  and a cross stitched baby sampler.

Stuttering along.....

I haven't had a lot of finishes lately. I've been sort of stuttering along. In my goal to create a Christmas stocking for my family members there has been a hitch in the giddy-up as Andy Griffith would say.
First, I was working on Amanda's. She's my daughter-in-law. So, then my son and she decided to separate. I couldn't continue to work on a project that might never be used. I wasn't giving up on the marriage, but I just didn't have the heart to stitch on it.
So.... I went on to Phillip's and had made just a little bit of progress on it, when I got word that there is a new family member expected. Our niece, Della is expecting. So, I have to do a birth piece for her. She's not due until winter, but that is a real date, so I feel like I have to get hers completed.
I've made quite a bit of progress, but not ready to post a picture yet. I'll be back soon to post a completed project picture, I hope.
