Completed 2005
Here are the items I've finished in the year 2005 - some are framed, some aren't; and actually, some aren't *quite* finished - they're just stitched! :) If you wish to see a bigger picture, just click on the thumbnail.

My brother, Nathan, got married to Kristina in 2004. However, their present didn't get done until 2005! It's a Bucilla kit called Wedding Invitation. I did most of this during two shows in 2005 ~ the A.D. Players' musical version of Anne of Green Gables and Mildred's Umbrella's performances of By the Bog of Cats. |

This is another of Bob Harrison's beautiful cats, called Feline Fantasy. I stopped working on these white kitties because they reminded me so much of Ivory, who died of kidney failure in July 2002.

Royal Highness is another lovely kitty from Bob Harrison. | |

Just Nan has some gorgeous designs. I picked up Fairy Roses at the 2003 CATS show in The Woodlands, TX. Now I've just got to find the frame & handpainted mat! |

Angel of Healing by Lavender & Lace took over a year to do. I didn't have a lot of time in 2004 to do much of anything. But I finally finished her, and sent her to Mom as a very late Christmas present. She got her framed in all her glory! I did add in some orange Mill Hill beads for the rainbow effect around the angel.

Lavender & Lace's Lady of the Thread was such a fun design to do. I stitched it on Wichelt's new 28 count hand-dyed linen, called African Daisy. I think it turned out beautifully! I gave this to Mom this year for an early Christmas present. She got it framed for Christmas | |
 |
Lorri Birmingham's American Needle Roll was a fun little thing to stitch up. I finished everything but stitching the charms on and putting it together during Mildred's Umbrella's production of By the Bog of Cats. |  |
 |
Lorri Birmingham's Butterflies & Hearts Decorative Tin Cover was a quick stitch. I thoroughly enjoy Lorri's designs. I bought some store ribbon to glue on the outside of the Mini Altoid Tin box, but went ahead and made the floss cording for around the edge of the design. |  |
 |
Lorri Birmingham's Butterflies & Hearts Needle Roll was a lovely little project to carry with me to shows. I think I pretty much finished this one during the A.D. Player's musical version of Anne of Green Gables. |  |
 |
I finally finished Todd's stocking this year! Since we were staying in Houston for Christmas, I figured I should sew this up for him. Because the cording was so big, I wound up having to pretty much stitch everything by hand. This is Holiday Workshop by Better Homes & Gardens. It's part of their Heirloom Stocking in Cross-Stitch. Hopefully, I'll get my Stitcher's Studio finished soon! |

| Better Homes & Garden's Holiday Workshop was stitched in 2001, but not finished until 2005. My husband, Todd, picked out the pattern. So, this year, we had both our stocking stuffers in his! |  |
