10th January Project-Start

and my first 2011 FINISH!!!!  Yes, I started a project yesterday and FINISHED it yesterday.  With My Needle- Needles & Pins Heart Pinkeep.  First thing my husband said was, "I havent seen you stitch many hearts before......"  The end result is what drew me in, plus there was a blackbird involved!!!!  (Technically, the original is a navy bird, mine is black)

 Now I know it isnt a big project, but it is super cute.  I didnt 'finish' it, just stitched it.  I am not much of a finisher, and unless there is a deadline, it wont get finished for sometime. 

Using a scrap of 40ct Weeks Dye Works Straw (which looks pretty close to the pattern picture), and my conversion of Gentle Arts threads, it was a easy and fun little project.  I wanted to get something done in one day, for goodness sakes, you know that isnt going to happen with most of my starts this month :) 
What is going to be next?  My husband is already thinking of a personal challenge for me to do in February......I already have ideas for that :)  But for today, one only knows!!!!!!
