She is a happy girl

Here comes Sarah Tatum
with her new look
and having a better attitude!

Her color even showed up
really close to the original :)

I've been dedicated with her pretty much
since last weekend.

And found out one another reason why
she was neglected for this long
since four years ago.


The problem I found was
where you see Limo's bone shaped cookie :O

Just because of one little stitch was
 two threads off,
I discovered that the rest of half medallions
weren't stitched where they are supposed be
and that ended up causing another problem
not leaving enough room for the next medallion!!

Ughhhhhhhh!!!

I usually don't really care about
just one stitch off from where it should be,
but this particular one was an important one
which affects the whole entire that area.
Four half medallions,
two alphabets and one number
had to be rescued.

I gave her a major surgery
and removed those bad stuff out.
Ouch!
Very painful work involved for sure.

But now, my happy needle is flying
and turned into the bottom right corner
without any fear!
And while the strong antibiotic medication
I put on all over her is still working,
I have to put more stitches in.

BTW, do you know why
 I feel such a great motivation
with Sarah?

Because I found my next few XXX projects
listed on the sidebar on my blog :)
I've already pre-ordered
one reproduction chart
as for the new Nashville release :)))

So till Jean @LNS comes back from
Nashville market,
no affair with anyone else,
but stick with Sarah...

Oh, I will have to allow myself to
play with Mary Glover as well
as the 3rd part of SAL will be posted
 tomorrow!

  2. Beautiful progress! Sorry to hear about the ripping that you had to do--I HATE it when that happens. I'm looking forward to the next part of Mary's SAL, too!
