Stitching on Speed… er Sudafed

Kitty Cottage Sampler, Progress as of 30.01.09 - Click for a larger image! I have managed to come down with a cold or sinus infection (I haven’t yet looked at my snot to determine which ailment I have contracted) and I have to teach a library instruction class tomorrow morning (yes, I know it’s Saturday, but we have distance ed classes on the weekends and I am usually asked to do one or two of them a semester) so I was going to hop into bed after I finished stitching tonight without an update, but then I made the mistake of looking at my Google reader and the progress pictures I saw there made me want to post a picture of what I have been working on too. (Sorry about the run-on sentence. It must be the Ibuprofen or the Sudafed talking. Most likely the Sudafed since it is essentially Speed.) :lol:

Here is “Kitty Cottage Sampler.” I am about 65% complete. Everything has been smooth sailing with the exception of the little gate. After stitching about half of the gate I decided to frog what I had done because the recommended ecru was practically invisible on the Lambswool. I substituted 762 and while it is still barely visible, I like it better than the ecru.

Man do I hate frogging over one! What a pain!
