Cute froggies

Not the Reverse Stitching kind of frogs but cute cross stitched frogs...   I finished Edge of the Pond this morning and I have to say that the little frogs in the picture are my favourite aspect of this design.  The birds add a lot to it too.  It is very elegant in all of it's simplicity.

In my last post I mentioned how I felt this was dragging on, so, yesterday and this morning many hours were spent in my stitchy chair with lots of determination to finish it off. There really wasn't all that much left, it was just a matter of putting in the time to get it done. 

My plans for my next project were to pull out a UFO needlepoint canvas and finish it off, but I don't think that's what I'm going to do.  I'm feeling the urge to work on some smalls for Christmas and Halloween.  Decisions, decisions........

But the decision probably won't be made today.  We're going to see Cowboys and Aliens today.  I'm not sure what to expect from this, but I do like Harrison Ford.  We went to Captain America last week and I enjoyed it. 

That's all I got to say for now.  'Til next time!  Have a great week!

Great finish Karen! I love the frogs too.
Let me know how you liked Cowboys and Aliens. I've been thinking of seeing it with my son.
