When you know moving helps you recover after an anxiety attack, you end up with 4 sweater WIPs 😅😅😅😅

Finally took apart a commission that fell through & was able to make it even better than before! I ended up using only about 1/3 of the yarn, and it took a fraction of the time.
Also made some rough tags for my sellable work and organized/decorated the studio

After a week of rest and reset, followed by a slight pet scare, we're back! Working hard on piece number two of my mini series and I'm looking forward to seeing the finished result! Hope to be done by the holidays! 🤞

🤣🤣🤣 I love how it's worded like there has been ANY improvement whatsoever

Nearly done with the first of my mini series pieces! Hopefully, I'll only need one more supply run and one more work day to finish!

It's the final stretch! I'm most looking forward to taking out the grid so I can really see the whole image!

Finally finished with the main body of the shawl and I'm looking forward to finishing it! I was disappointed they discontinued the original color, but I'm really happy with how it's turning out! Now for the top border!

Gradually, we approach the end. Hopefully this will only take a couple more weeks, then I'll be finding a frame and starting my next pieces for the art show in November. #crossstitch #xstitch #crafts #art #needlework #handmade #wip

Tried out watercolor and while I'm really not extatic with the end result, it was fun to do!

I've gotten so much done, but it feels like it's going so slowly. Mental health has been a dumpster fire, but it's nice to sit down and check out for a few hours. #crossstitch #xstitch #handmade #art #needlework #crafts #gifts #wip

Conferences are done and so is the book nook! I feel so much better and excited to get back to my regular projects! Again, I found it at an Arc donation store, so it doesn't have the lights or anything, but I'm still pretty happy with how it turned out!

Been taking a bit of a brain-break while life gets to be too much. Found this book nook project at the Arc and there are thankfully instructions online that have been incredibly helpful.

I've been working on this shawl for years now and it's so heavy! I'm not even exaggerating with 'years', they've discontinued the color I originally started with 😅

I keep forgetting to take progress pics before I leave the studio, but the next project is underway! I'm switching it up a bit!
Also my massive shawl is slowly getting there! It's only taken absolute AGES!

Sneak peek of the finished project! Still need to tidy up the back and edges, but I am so proud of it!
