Black Hat Society is done!

On Friday I had my third cross stitch finish of the year! I finally finished Black Hat Society by The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery.

I started this piece last year but, as always, I got distracted with other projects so it took me a little over a year to finish it :P

I have an idea of how I want to finish it but that will have to wait until next week because I have a few crochet pieces I need to finish before Monday.

Design: Black Hat Society by The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery

Stitch count 129w x 106h

Fabric: 28ct Echo Cashel Linen (Pïcture This Plus)

Threads: DMC

Started: 17. September. 2017

Finished: 21. September. 2018 

I want this done in time for Halloween 2018!

Yesterday I worked on Black Hat Society for about half an hour and I managed to finish the little pumpkin. The only thing left to do is a witch...

Projects I need to finish this month!

Halloween is fast approaching so need to finish Black Hat Society soon so I can display it this year in my home. I started this piece last year in September and I'm still working on it!

As you can see I don't have much left to do so I think I can finish it sometime this month.

💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

By the end of the month, I'll be visiting my daughter's classroom to talk about her and show pictures and videos of when she was a baby up until now. 

Parents usually take small gifts for each child when they visit; so Maria Fernanda asked me if I could make amigurumi because she always tells them that I make stuffed toys for her. So now I need to finish 29 small amigurumi for my visit on August 29th. 

For the boys, I chose to make mini sharks and for the girls, kawaii watermelon slices. So far I've done 3 sharks of 15 I need to make, and 1 watermelon of 14. I need to get busy with these or I won't finish them on time!!! 

Happy Halloween!

It's been almost a month since my last update  ̃๏̯̃๏ . I kind of lost my blogging mojo for a while, I wasn't even in the mood for reading your blogs  ̃o.O But now I'm back and will try to update frequently ^.^

I've also haven't picked up my cross stitching this month, I'm enjoying so much crocheting that's all I've been doing all month. I tested a crocheted dress pattern (will share with you pics of that when the pattern is published), the FIRST one I made ≧◡≦ .

Between other finishes I made a Halloween custome for my little girl. She loves Minnie Mouse; even calls Mickey Mouse, Minnie. So when I  saw this cute Minnie dress on Ravelry I knew I had to make it for her. The pattern was very easy to follow but I did have to add a few rows to the bodice and an extra ruffle to the skirt for a perfect fit. For the hat, the pattern indicated to make the bow with ribbon but instead I crocheted one. I love how it came out (>‿♥)

 

A pasado casi un mes desde mi última publicación   ̃๏̯̃๏ . Perdí por un tiempo los deseos de "bloguear", ni siquiera sentía ganas de leer sus blogs   ̃o.O Pero bueno ya estoy de vuelta y trataré de publicar con frecuencia ^.^

Tampoco he tocado mis bordados este mes, estoy disfrutando tanto tejer a crochet que es todo lo que hecho este mes. Probé/evalué un patrón para un vestido a crochet (les mostraré fotos cuando se publique el patrón), el PRIMERO que hago ≧◡≦ .

Entre otras cosas que he terminado le hice un disfraz para Halloween a mi gordita. Le encanta Minnie Mouse; hasta llama así a  Mickey Mouse. Así que cuando vi en Ravelry un patrón para un vestido de Minnie sabía que tenía que hacerlo. El patrón fue muy sencillo de seguir pero si tuve que añadir algunas vueltas al cuerto y un vuelo extra a la falda. Para el gorro el patrón indicaba que el moño se hiciera con cinta yo preferi hacerle a crochet. Me gusta mucho como quedo (>‿♥)

Cuando terminé de tejer el vestido y el gorrito, publiqué en mi facebook de que le había hecho un disfraz a mi hija para una  fiesta de Halloween y mi prima (la fotógrafa) ofrecio tomarle algunas fotos ... aqui esta mi pequeña Minnie Mouse ❤

Getting ready for Halloween

As mentioned on my previous post, on Monday I finished this lovely owl basket :) 

It was done as a CAL with members of the dc2tg group in Ravelry. The basket was crocheted doubling the yarn and the rest was done with just one strand and a smaller hook. 

I LOVE how it turned out!

I'll be back in a couple of day with my WIPocalypse post ;)

Como mencioné en mi entrada anteriorm el lunes terminé esta linda canasta de búho :)

La realicé como parte de un CAL con miembros del grupo dc2tg en Ravelry. La canasta la tejí con dos hebra de lana y el resto con sólo una y un palito de crochet más pequeño.

Me ENCANTA como quedo!

En unos días publico mi avance para el WIPocalypse :)
