Stitching, Sewing and a Green Eyed Monster

Well, lots of little stuff this week. My back is still giving me some problems, and the neck is, as always, a pain. But having said that I did manage to get a few things done last week. My husband and I made our new starts and I will begin with his. Being the pattern it is, his pic is naturally of stitching black. He has a lot going on right now so I was surprised he got more than 200 stitches in. Here is his new start of Dragon Rip.

Not terribly exciting I know. And yet, a new start is always sort of exciting.

I haven't gotten much stitching done this weekend, the refrigerator went out Friday and I was bummed, so most of what I'm about to show you is from last Friday late through Thursday.

You have no idea how hard it was to get a pic of these light colors. This is at 2550 stitches,  so obviously the half stitch is quicker on solid colors.

And finally, the green eyed  monster. His red-eye came out green for some reason.
