V - Disney Alphabet Cross Stitch


My "V" choice was part letter necessity and part like of the character. I wasn't a Wreck-It-Ralph fan overall, but the movie had it's strong points and she was one of them. I can relate to the outcast that gets ostracized by the popular crowd and never seems to do anything right (a bit too much actually).

From a stitching point of view, I had to flip her ponytail to the other side because of Phillip's name being too low. I also really wanted to change the "V" because it looks weird to me, but I did decide to go ahead and keep it like it was charted because I've changed enough (please forgive me CloudsFactory!). But at least I didn't have to move her down a row (which I thought I was going to have to do). Now, the final row should be easy because it is exactly as charted!

"V" is for Vanellope

I've been following your progress on this piece though not always had time to comment. Well done for sticking to schedule, it's bee so much fun to watch this one grow. I'm really looking forward to seeing how they all look together at the big reveal! I wouldn't worry about the designers, I would imagine they are pretty pleased at how this is turning out too!

I saw wreck-it ralph for the first time the other week and it was ok, I liked the story idea and the characters although I think it lacked something. Great stitching though, I too am looking forward to the big reveal!

I haven't seen Wreck-it Ralph either, but it's great that you included some characters from the newer Disney movies too!

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
