A Finish & A Beginning

I finally finished Dimensions - Beguiling Tiger & I have to say I love the way it looks in the frame I picked out. I knew if I drug it to the waiting room enough times it would eventually get finished. Both of my parents are taking chemo at the moment & I don't know what I'd do with the cross stitch diversion. I seriously think cross stitch should be listed as a stress reliever. I think it not only helped me but it gave those waiting with me a diversion as well. I got so many comments on it. One guy even wanted to wear it on his shirt :o)



I also started a new project today & here's the progress. Any guesses on what this is? It sort of looks a little scary huh?

And your new project looks like a seal to me :)

That is fantastic - and the frame really sets it off. I think I will have to do that design for our friends who are big tiger fans.

Sorry to hear your parents are both undergoing chemo.
The new wip looks like a monkey, but not sure of the colors

Tammy thanks for commenting on my blog, it means I have found your blog too which I am enjoying.

Although I am sorry to hear about your parents :(

I really hope things work out well *HUGS*

The tiger came out beautifully and that frame really compliments his colours too.

I recently lost my job, stitching is keeping me sane, so yes, I agree :)
