Update on Companions, and another UFO unearthed!

Well, I only got 3 weekend days on Companions in October, but it's now in circulation in the rotation, so I should get back to it about 3 times a year. Here is an update picture...the wicker basket pack is done, and I will fill it next go-round (and add more bs).

For November, I pulled out an old CATS class project by Liz Turner Diehl. It is her 17th Century Italian Garden. It really is a nice piece and I got a lot done on Sunday. Here is the "before" picture....the four empty rectangles are nearly filled now! Will post an update at the end of the month.

Finally! I've been a member for several months and had no luck actually getting to stitch on one of my UFOs....until now! I've decided to put my UFOs into a monthly weekend-only rotation, and starting this month I'm working on TW's Companions! I will post a progress picture the end of the month, but here is where I left off way back in October of 2007....so far this month I'm working on the basket full of gifts the horse is carrying. Santa is facing the horse, with trees in the background. I've named her Cinnamon, after the mare I used to ride years ago. The fabric is a custom piece from Crossed Wing that I had Paula paint for this specific design. I really need to finish it to justify the work she did for me!
