Working on HF RR - Lizzy's Dear Diary Series

I worked on Heartfelt Friends RR this weekend and thought I was getting ahead and the evil frog appeared. I had stitched the house, which is the centerpiece of the stitching, one row to tall, one row to wide and the entire thing ONE thread over!! I was not a happy camper. This mistake put me behind where I wanted to be, but it happens. So I spent a good long while pulling out the house and now a corrected version stands in its place.
Here is a snap.


I really like the "Dear Diary" series and have ordered them to do at a later date.

I am really excited about getting my first name and address for the SBEBB Specific Designer Exchange. It will be my first exchange
and I have already sort of decided what I think I might do.

I had a couple of questions about what BAP means. It means "Big A$$ Project." Those really big pieces/projects that take months if not years to finish and take up the most time but are the most rewarding in the end when you have a finish.

Thanks for stopping by!!!! Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

Take care,
edgar

  1. Thanks for the clarification of BAP :) Those frogs can be so frustrating!!! Your house is looking good, I've been debating about the Dear Diary Series. I want them all--but who knows when I'll get around to stitching them!!!

  4. That is SO frustrating when you've made such a small mistake, but have to frog out a whole section because of it. Hopefully its the last frogging you do for a while.

    I'm signed up for the specific designer exchange too, and can't decide between 3 patterns. I sort of used this as an excuse to purchase just about any LHN pattern I liked.
