Sorry for the dark photo's, it's very dark and gloomy here today.
Earth Sampler
My goal is a line a week, so it should only take 2 months to finish,lol
That 40ct Ale took awhile for my eyes to adjust then the thread was knotting, great start!!
And here are photo's of Kellie's room painted
The green is much darker like a army green
I made the curtains to match her bed spread not too shabby huh?!
We also took some camouflage ribbon and made her a tack board. We may decide to put a border up too, I just have to recover from all the painting, lol
CindyMae has been designing her own cross stitch, go check out her freebies, she also has a store now.
TammyK has been designing too, she has some adorable freebie witches, also another good check it out blog.
I RAK'd Deb with two beaded scissors FOB's you can see them on her blog.
I was going to kit up Sunflower Fairy out of CS&N, it's hard mtching up those Valdani threads with dmc. I went to their website and found a few WDW threads to the conversion but not all the colors. Any suggestions??
Also on my Earth Sampler pic, do I have my q-snaps on wrong??
I know I am backwards.
Some asked about my ATS... it's not back yet from the framers, hopefully soon though
Well, I think that covers everything for now. I have lots of mail and blogging to do.
Thanks so much for your continued support, it's so appreciated

Hi Ranae,
I am so glad I could help you out on the dandelion stem thread, it really does exist! I think the green accent wall in the bedroom looks great! What a fun color. Decorating is right up my alley, too. Love the bunny on your new start. Bet you'll have it done before two months!!!
Your stitching looks fantastic! The bedroom looks awesome! Love the colors!!! Thanks for mentioning me!!!
Please stop by my blog and see the July 17th post as there is something there for you!!

Beautiful stitching, Ranae! I love the painting that you did, too. The room looks lovely.
My DD would love Kellie's room!
About the Q snaps if the way you have them works for you how can it be wrong
I. LOVE. THAT. BBD!! OH WOW....
GORGEOUS!
And the room and the curtains fab-U-lous ;)
Summer House is looking great. Love how Kellie's room turned out, I love green, any green.
Someone's been busy stitching and decorating!!!! Nice work :o)
I love that you linked to other Blogs. It's nice to see what others are up to.
Ok you are the second one I've seen who is doing this Earth Sampler and I just love this thing! Who is the designer??? Please tell me! lol
That's the way I use my Q snaps, though I know there are also people who put them the other way around so the work area is lower. I like it higher - it's easier to see everything IMHO.
I love green, but I'm not sure I'd be able to handle an army green wall. Yours looks great, though!
Nice WIP's. Glad you got the floss you needed. Kellie's room looks wonderful, your curtains match perfectly.
Have a great week x
Love the Summer House piece. And great work on the window treatment.
Thanks for all the fun links.
Summer House looks gorgeous!
Well done on Kellies room, i bet she loves it.
New start will grow fast, i bet its all done before the 2 months
My goodness you have been busy. Your stitching looks great. I love both those designs.
And the color in the bedroom is wonderful. I love greens. All shades. Great job on the curtains too.
Your WIP looks soooo pretty! Nice job. :) Nice work on the room paiting, too. I have some painting to do, wanna do mine? lol ;-)
What a great blog you have! I'm adding it to my favorites.

Great projects! Can't wait to see ATS when it arrives from the framer.
Can I join you in the Earth Sampler SAL on Fridays? I promise to post my progress. It's languishing in my stitching bag and I need motivation to pull it out and work on it.
The BBD piece is beautiful. Well done on finishing the decorating, the bedroom looks great
Your BBD is really coming along! And I am loving that room!
Great job on your finish AND the curtains! I love that color green too.
I really like that earth sampler.
That is how I use my qsnaps and I'm never wrong, Haha. But seriously, if it works for you then it's right for you.
Thanks for your comments on my blog. But why do I keep getting multiple posts for the same comment from you? 3 this last time. CJ ok;-)
Oops, left my comment on the previous post, lol!
Beautiful progress! Congrats too on your Boo finish. It looks fabulous! Love that green of your daughter's room.
Hi there Ranae,

The Sal is perfect.
Summer house is looking great :o) Thanks for mentioning me on your blog - very sweet of ya.
Hi Ranae! I'm so glad you took the time to visit my blog--I love to "meet" new stitching friends. Looking forward to seeing your progress on "Earth Sampler"--I think I'll have to add that one to me ever-growing "to be stitched" list...
Your two WIPs are looking lovely. Stitchers are so nice to always help out.
Summer House and the room looks great.
Your wips are BEAUTIFUL!!! Love these!!
Awesome paint job! Her room looks great!
Your stitching is lovely.
Your DD's room looks great.
I was wondering... what is the name of the scissors in the photo with BBD's Summer House?
Thanks!
Annette

The room looks so good!
