January 2011 Stitching

Below are pictures of what I've been stitching this month. But first is the reason why I don't get more done. Daisy Dog just has to take over my stitching chair whenever I get up. LOL. And there isn't enough room for both of us.
Next is a bookmark I made for a bookmark swap. When I got my surprise package from Herschnerrs there was all this
blue floss so I did the bookmark blue and learned a few new stitches along the way. The design was a freebie from CyberStitchers.com.


Owl SAL from Oak Haven - the fabric is actually a lavender over-dyed luanga 32ct 1 over 1. The snowflakes have silver filament and the owl body is is that DMS special effects white.


And this is the Eagle Scout Emblem for my oldest grand-son. There is quite a bit of silver filament in the eagle's body and the wording but it is a relatively easy stitch - just time consuming.

I also worked on Power In The Midst but there really isn't enough to post yet.
