I have also been very busy inventorying and preparing some vintage furniture for my Etsy shop.  The four pieces below, I have finally gotten listed.  The one on the bottom left has been Hand-painted by artist (and daughter) Cheryl Waugh and turned out beautifully.  I am so proud of her!  You can see all of these pieces (while they last) in our Etsy shop if interested: Double the fun Crafts

Since my last post, I have made quite a bit of progress on the middle and am almost finished the center motif.  I think I can now say that if I lump all of the stitching together, I am now halfway finished - maybe a bit more.  The second half of a rug always seems a bit tedious because you have already stitched that part on the other half so it doesn't seem as exciting as when you first see a design element come to life.  I always enjoy seeing a design come to life.  It is such a satisfying feeling!
By the time I get to the second half of a project, my thoughts start turning to the next project I wish to do.  This time, I am not sure what I want to do.  Our Petitpoint group will be stitching a set of elements to cover a miniature wingback chair so, since none of my rug patterns are calling to me at the moment, I think I will do that.  I have the perfect chair to use for the project and have already taken it apart to get the templates for the fabric needed.  Now I have to decide on a design to use!  Luckily, I have a bit of time before I will start stitching it because I will not be starting until this rug is done.
​Until next time, Happy Stitching!
