Cross-stitch...I Had No Idea It Would Take This Long!

I finally finished up the wolf pattern. D:
It took me over 7 years to complete (from start to finish). Of course, I procrastinated on it just a wee tad bit. :P
So here is what the image is supposed to look like when finished. It's about 6"(w)x 4"(h).

Aaaannndd here's what I came up with:

I'd say it's pretty decent, considering that I totally botched it up. :P (see the trees and the right wolf's legs). >__< 

Well, I like it at least, and I suppose that's all that really matters in artwork. As long as the artist his/herself is happy with the outcome, who cares what anyone else thinks, right?  :) 

Hope you all are having a wonderful day!

UGA Bulldog

So remember my last post? Well, I finished the bulldog for my sister!
Here's a pic~

Cute yeah? 

Ok, so it doesn't look much like a bulldog...but it's still adorable. :3 

Hopefully my sisters will appreciate these cute little toys and not throw them in the back of the car like they did with the last one. xD  Aw well. It was still fun to make. 

Now forwards with my cross stitching!

Current Projects

Does anyone else take on more projects than they can handle? Because I sure do.
I tend to get over-ambitious, as usual, and I want to make so many things but I have no time for it all. Hopefully I'll get al these great ideas done at some point, which I'm sure I will, but for now I'll just take it one step at a time. That's all one person can do right? :)

Well, I've been wanting to get back into my cross stitch projects again. I've had one about a third done for over two years now. I just can't seem to sit down and do it. For some reason it just seems so tedious to me. But I've only ever finished small cross stitch patterns, which I've sadly all lost along with all my family's moving around. I've been getting into Harry Potter recently. I just watched the first five movies all this weekend with Tyler, who wants to go out and get the last three. So I've found a really neat Hogwarts Crest pattern online, and I have all of the supplies I need. Here's the picture of what I'm talking about:

But I wanted to first finish the one that's a third done - which is a pair of wolves with a scenic background. It was in one of those Dimensions kits- which frankly seem to never give you enough thread to finish the darn thing. It's this one:

Anyways, I'm also working on some crochet projects. I'm making my sisters their school mascots, the AU Elephant and the UGA Bulldog. So far I have the elephant done.
Tel me what you guys think! I made it from scratch from my own pattern.

I hope everyone is having a good winter so far. (Heh, good winter my butt. It's 9 degrees in Indianapolis! Brrrr!)
