Work has picked up and stitching time has been limited this week. Only progress, I did make, is on my HAED 2013 SAL. Nearly finished the bottom page that was sent out early.

Some years ago, we had to pack up everything, and store in a barn, for a move. Some things were water damaged as the barn leaked. This is a rescue project. The cross stitch fabric was stained. How it missed the design it self is a mystery to me. Am grateful for that! I cut away the stained fabric and appliqued the corners to even out the design. Machine embroidered snowflakes over more fabric hole damage.

This is what I ended up with. A wall hanging. Work has been saved.

This is another damaged piece. Washed and cut away damage. Then washed again to try to get more stains out.

 There are some stains, too close to the design, that I just sewed over. Also cross stitched, a small flower, over another stain at the bottom. Added a machine embroidered design, on one side and a strip of cloth on the other.

 Framed in for a pillow.

 Have a few finished sewed up.

 For those of you who know me, this was a\ very short update. Promise, I will do better on the first saturday in July. Thanks for stopping by!
Happy stitching, Deb
