I had a WONDERFULLY crafty weekend!! In addition to crafts...hubby and I went plant/flower shopping and have a front and back garden full of flowers...Spring has officially sprung in the Daniels house!
Now on to bigger and better news.......
I can officially cross off the first two items on my "Rotation Schedule" Check-list! <woooo!!!>
My first item was to finish pages 4 and 7 of Coral, and here's how she looks:
 |
| Only 4 pages left to go! |
And my second item on my list was to finish page 1 of Wings:
 |
| It looks like a big huge block of light gray...but there are actually 3 colors in there! |
I also chipped away on my "yarn stash" by making some cute Spring Kitchen Towels. I have tons of yarn I need to use up, and I found some kitchen towels I bought last Spring at a sale. I also hit the craft store this weekend and bought a towel that was on sale for half off (I couldn't resist!).....here's the results of my de-stashing:
 |
| My cotton yarn stash |
 |
| My sale purchases |
 |
| My Spring towel stash |
 |
| The two made from knitting |
 |
| The two made from crocheting |
That's it! Just a quick update before Tuesday lands on me!! Hope everyone had a wonderful start to the week!

Congrats on achieving your goals. Both look gorgeous. Love your easter towels.
Your towel sets are fantastic and Coral looks amazing
The towel sets are adorable! So perfect!
Great progress on Coral too, she is looking stunning.
Everything looks lovely Lesli.
Can you tell me how the grid works on your cross stitch? I think it's absolutely brilliant!
My husband had been trying to figure out how he could come up with a way to stamp the fabric with a grid just like that, something that would wash out when I was done, but obviously this way would work much better.
What kind of thread do you use and how many spaces are in between your long stitches?
Absolutely beautiful, by the way! I'm anxious to see what the wings design is!

Great job on Coral. I have gotten several HAED charts but haven't started them yet. I love the towels too. I wish I could crochet or knit!
Congrats on getting your pages. I love the towel toppers. Really cute.
