Puzzle #8 Big Ben Red 1000 piece

 I finished this puzzle on Friday.  It actually took me much longer than I had expected.

My first Big Ben puzzle in quite a while.  Great design, good difficulty.  The pieces were on the thin side.  Overall I really enjoyed the puzzle.

Book #5 One on one by Freida McFadden

Finished another book!  This was a great book.  I have read another book by this author, The Ex.  Both have twist endings which I love.  This book begins with a group of friends going away for the weekend.  It ends much differently.

 

Puzzle #7 and Cross Stitch #9

I'm combining my accomplishments so maybe I can get caught up with everything I need to do.  First, Mill Hill Plum Tulips.  My first Mill Hill ribbon embroidery.  I've got to say I messed up over and over.  At one point I almost gave up.  Only made one, too many mess ups.

Next is puzzle #7, Springbok.  About a 3 hour puzzle.  Nice, Neat and Done.  Bought at Thrift store for 45 cents.  Still new in package.  

 

Cross Stitch #8 Letter R and Cat Beatrix Potter Sampler

 

I have finished letter 5 - only 21 to go.  This is my catdog helper, Dallas.

Closeup of R.  I love Beatrix Potter but I think I underestimated the time this guy would take.  To top that off this kit is from the 1993, the thread is getting very old.  It will look great when finished.

Cross Stitch #7 Mill Hill Snowman

 

Finish #7, #8 to follow.  I had to order the snowflake.  He's so cute!!

While I was finishing the first snowman I finished a few others too.  Love actually finishing things.
