Showing posts with the label coasters

Progress

I'm now up to 35 rows of the first page. Some peach has crept in to the colors. I also finished stitching the coasters. Still need to cut and glue the felt to the backs but at least the stitching is complete. I also broke down and ordered the Under the Sea SAL and Fantasy SAL from Lakeside Needlecraft.

So close to a finish

But the kit for the dragon coasters didn't provide enough thread for the colors needed to overcast the dragons. The castle is put together, but I ran out of the blue. And I had 3 full lengths of the gray left for the dragons, but each will take at least an entire length. I emailed Herrschners to see if they could send me the missing yarn. In the meantime I've started crocheting a hat for my boyfriend and kitted up a HAED for their Challenge #4, Alternative Reality.

Why?

I continued to work on the dragon coaster set this week. But now for the reason for the title of this post. I love HAED patterns, even though I've yet to actually complete one. But that's lack of time and wanting to do other things. I digress. I have over 800 patterns on my wishlist. I ended up down to 21 after much debating. First pass through I still had over 80... So this is what I ended up with: No idea when I'll find time to stitch all of these...

Different projects

So I started to make the other owl pillow. Managed to get one side done after modifying the ears slightly. But doing plain rows was getting annoying to me. So I switched to plastic canvas coasters. And since I have a code for 20% off a HAED purchase, I need to figure out what patterns of my 800+ wishlist I want. Oh boy.
