Families Photo Album: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

I was able to complete this piece in time for Christmas… it was all wrapped and everything! But then I didn’t actually see the recipient at all. Even now months later we haven’t seen each other! I may need to just send it in the mail so he’ll get it…
Anyway, here is some more of the progress on this piece!
Here is where we left off last time:
Four letters complete!
After that last photo, I got a LOT done on the letters before I took my next picture. I finished the ‘M’, completed the entirety of the word ‘are’, and got the ‘O’, ‘R’, and ‘E’ done of Forever:
Got a lot of the letters done!
I decided to go ahead and get the word “Forever” done next, since it was almost complete anyway. And it was easier counting down and over than up and over which I’d have to do for ‘Families’. So I got the ‘F’ and the ‘E’ done next:
Nearly have two words complete!
After that, I got bored of doing letters and decided to work on the top and bottom border. I finished all of the dark red on the flower, and got half of the vine border finished along the bottom. Because I was short on time and fabric, I made some alterations to the vine: rather than doing a thick leafy vine throughout, I left the center leaf only and then did a single stitch line as the vine:
Working through the borders. Less than half the chart to go!
I didn’t stitch very much after that. Just enough to finish the bottom vine border:
Bottom border finished!
Then I took a small break from it in order to work on other things. So that’s all I was able to get done at this point!

Progress Report is an update on all my stitching habits, from the kits to the stitching to the finishing process and more! Right now I am featuring one of my cat-themed projects and several of the mini kits I’m currently working on, along with other pieces I like to pull out and work on at random.
By the way – to keep up on Little Thread Crafts stitching news and get pictures, updates, and more that don’t appear on the blog until much later, follow me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram! I would greatly appreciate it!
