I have finished the Blackbird Designs Mystery Bonus #2 that Danielle and I have been working on in a SAL. I really want to start the third one, but I am awaiting my order from overseas to come in with some of the threads that I have started to run quite low on. In this design I couldn't decide on which initials to use, my initials are quite boring (SS). Then I wasn't really sure if I should use my husbands (TP) or my daughter's first letters of their names together which would be AA (not really the right ones to use). In the end I used AP as both of their initials are the same, so two daughters, one initial, yeah! (The stitcher in me must have subconsciously thought of this dilemma when we named them.)
I have been really getting into some crochet and knitting lately. Too much time on my hand with my DH gone. By the way he is back and he bought back some lovely things for me and the girls. I will post again this coming week with lots more to show.

Beautiful piece!
Beautiful finish! Initials can be hard. My daughter and I share some of the same ones, as does our kitten. lol!
Your finish is beautiful!
Beautiful finish! And I love the finishes in your last post too! :)
I Love this design, so beautiful. Congrats on finishing it.
I hope you are having a good week.
This one turned out so nice! It makes me want to pull it out of my basket and get started on the mystery too!
It looks great! I was doing so well until I made a mistake and had to pick out stitches. I've done that and have been working the section again but have lost a little steam. Must get back to it this weekend!
Beautiful Finish! I'm slowly getting closer to making this one myself--the chart with the 5th section arrived in the mail a couple of days ago--now if only I could decide which linen I want (doing it all on one piece...)
This is so lovely!
Congrats on the finish! Glad your DH is home once again.
Lovely finish, using your daughters intitals is a lovely touch.
Beautiful! Congrats on finishing Bonus #2. I have planned to stitch this BBD design and hope to start soon.
Hugs,
A gorgeous finish :)
That is so funny about the initials! How clever of you to think ahead of time because of your stitching! ;-)
The BBD piece is gorgeous!
I meant to say, too, in the other comment, that the piece your MIL did for your birthday is lovely! How nice that she did that for you! Great job on your BBD mystery piece, too.
It's turning out lovely!
Congratulations on the finish, it is gorgeous. Looking forward to seeing what your DH brought back for you. Happy Belated Birthday!!
