Aaand so, this stuff happened and then..


So, I have been sick for a couple of days, laying around feeling sorry for myself and sleeping. I mean, I didn't want chocolate! I was that sick. on bunny you can tell she is not feeling well if she doesn't want any papaya treats, but for me it is chocolate, if I don't want any, I probably have a fever. Which I did. And a stuffy nose. I did a tiny bit of sewing, and I started something new....
Which when I think about it was not allowed, because I had only done on WiSP finish and one regular finish in stead of two WiSPs...Oh well, let's blame the fever. At least I am going forwards at a pace which will mean that eventually I will have my projects finished;)


I finished the bunny, I like it. Going to find a frame for this one I think. And as predicted there is not enough floss to start over and make just one of them...
But it was easy and fast, I can recommend this project from Pako if you don't want a challenge or if you are a beginner looking for a bit of a bigger challenge (project). With just two types of stitching backstitch and cross-stitch. But I do recommend spacing the bunnies a little bit farther from each other than I did, because they look a bit cramped.




A Finish from my WiSP-pile. A freebie from a magazine from last year I think.... Anyway. It went rather fast to stitch, have no idea why I left this for so long, there was no mistake in it, must have gotten busy with Christmas gifts or something. Which incidentally is why I am trying my best at making gifts this early, so my WiSP pile will not increase but rather decrease. Aaand, with this I killed two birds with one stone, because this will finish as a Christmas Card as well as being a WiSP finish. 
So now my Christmas Card list is at 1/?. Don't know how many I will make this year so the amount is still undecided. 


Here is where I sinned. I felt a lot better today than the other days, so I made a start, and a finish in one day. Completely forgetting the aforementioned rule. I am hoping this will be an extra small Christmas-gift for someone. A sign for their bathroom door, I added the text, but I am not quite sure if I like it, but no worries, I have enough floss to make another. 

And after I finished this I started on a WiSP because I am trying to make amends. 
(and a dent in my WiSP pile, which seems a lot more like an perpetual motion machine, than a list.)

Bunny Panel Number Four


The last bunny in the series. It still needs a little backstitching. I am not sure if I want to backstitch the bunnies.... I will see tomorrow.
And when it is completely done I will show the whole picture, in a frame, yes, I am that adventurous.
Oh, and I don't think there is enough thread to make one of the panels again. So I need to find more threads that look a bit like these. ^^

Bunny Panel Number Three

I got the third in the series finished. Yay me.
Not much more to say, I am hoping to finish this soon so that I can start something new, you know from the two finishes before a new start rule.

Bunny Panel Number Two


Another one is done^^ I quite like it. And these two look so in love, wouldn't you love a Valentines Card with these two?

Other than that, little bunny did some binkies today so I am sure she feels a lot better now.
We took her to the vet a couple of days ago because she was turning her nose down on papaya drops, which she loves and can never have enough off. So we are hoping it was just gas or fur giving her a tummy ache and not the E-word.

Bunny Panel number One!


One of the Four Bunny Panels is done! Yay. 
Yesterday boyfriend and I celebrated our five year anniversary. So today I have made cupcakes, they are on the counter still because we are not so patiently waiting for the frosting to set.



So today we are off to an evening of stitching (me) watching more Fringe (both) and sleeping under the sofa (bunny) and eating cupcakes (all but the bunny). In that order, I need to watch carefully as to not spill chocolate frosting on my stitching!

Oh yes I did

Again.
Can you guess what I did?

I started something new! But I am sticking to my two finished before starting something new rule, because then eventually (hopefully) I won't have anymore Wips. So I am being good.

Can you tell what I am making yet? 
Can you guess?


 Yes, it is another bunny design. Can you guess who it is for?  This design is just for me. It has bunnies you see. 
Although that cute little bunny couple in the bottom right corner looks just right for a Valentine Card. Lets hope Pako is as generous with their threads as Bothy threads are:D If so then I know what boyfriend will receive in oh, about, six months. 
( Never too early to plan ahead right? I mean I just finished a present that is more than a year early.)


Oh, and since I am showing off bunnies. Here is my little one. She has been busy throwing hay around making her best effort to turn our house into a barn and is taking a well deserved rest before she will no doubt complain about all the hay everywhere and what kind of hotel is this where the maids have been slacking off on their vacuum duties.
