I stitched Earthdancer last week. I didn't get as much done as I would have liked. Not bad for only 3 days stitching. I still love this piece.

My first mill hill kit
This is my small rotation. I started something new this week as last month I finished Mr. Monster.
Can you believe this is my first mill hill kit? Although I have seen many I have liked, never did I like one enough to pay the price for one. When I saw this owl however...Well I had to have it.
I stitch in a frame that holds my snaps that hubby made for me. Perforated paer however doesn't fit in a snap, so I stitched this in hand. I think that is the reason why I like how it looks though I did not really enjoy the stitching. I hate stitching I hand. So my goal for next month is to find a way fit make this work in a frame.mi have an idea. Not sure though. I'll still finish this as I love the owl. If I can't find a way to make this work in a frame, this will be my only mill hill kit.
Anyone else not like mill hill kits as they don't like perforated paper?

I got a lot stitched since the last check in. I even had my first finish.
As of last month this is where I was on Earthdancer. 32 ct Silkweaver's fairyland Wexford linen.
This is where I am now-
My HAED is coming along well. Dragonflies whisper, Kuik. 22 ct. Tent stitch.
This is where I was when I started
This is where I am now.
In my small rotation I stitched Mr, Blue Monster, 28 ct. Mystery eve weave. This was a fast, fun stitch. It's mosey n me from the 2012 Halloween collector issue. I did change a few of the threads.

Small finish-Mr. Blue Monster
I said I was going to start a Mill Hill kit this week. However when I went to separate the floss out, I was missing a color. A few of the colors were so close, I am not even 100% sure which I am missing. So I went through my kitted and waiting projects. That's when I came across Mr. Blue Monster. I was able to start and finish this in 5 days.
I stitched this mostly as charted on 27 ct mystery fabric. This chart is from the 2012 Halloween collectors issue of JCS. It's a mosey 'n me pattern.
