What x-stitch projects are you working on for spring?

I am working on The Four Seasons by Marjolein Bastin and a tea towel for a swap so that design is a secret
You can see my weekly update on my blog.

I got the May 2007 issue of Cross-Stitch and Needlework, it had a Herrshners catalog with it. I could so spend all my $$ in that catalog. But I try to be rational about what I can actually stitch!! Yeah right!! I already have a couple patterns set in line to do after 4 seasons. I usually try to have a large and small project going. I can take the small project with me to work and on errands to work on while on lunch or waiting.

Looks nice Bridge, I can't do the counted cross stitch anymore it makes me dizzy, kind of like car sick. I have several framed that either I did or were given to me. Make sure we see a picture when they all all done.

Bridge,
I'll have to tell you my autumn cross stitching projects!! Starting to really cool down over here, so I am posting about cold things!
I think we've already discussed love of Marjolein Bastin! I have always wanted to do that exact design - I particularly love the way she designs mushrooms, perfect. I just have trouble justifying the expense. It is only available in a kit here and is super expensive. I hardly ever buy kits (unless I can't get the pattern any other way) as I have a really great source of discounted linen and thread and the kits work out way more expensive. I will be watching your blog to see how you go! I do love working on big projects. I am currently doing Ice Angel by Lavender and Lace. I love their angels and also Mirabilia, I've done quite a few now from both, and have a few more in the works!
I can't wait to see the end result - what count are you stitching on? It must be fine or it will end up enormous!
Best wishes and happy stitching,
Jayne
