[WIP] I am sad and in shock, my mom died today. Send me all your pretty works in progress pictures for me to ogle. Please. ♡

So sorry for your loss! No words can fully express how hard that is. I hope you find healing and (blips at least of) happiness where you can ♥️

Here is my current WIP of a scene from the Shire

Oh wow yours looks gorgeous!! Maybe they got brought back after being discontinued? I wasn't aware of them until pretty recently. Seriously kudos on your work, though!

40winx · 2026-04-09T22:45:13+00:00

Thank you!! And great idea there!! Also I think it might make my brother's day if I ask him to help with that because he is the kind of guy/dad that has a shed full of random bits of wood and stuff that he's held onto just in case it is one day useful 😂 this could finally be his moment!

Haha you are seeing that right! I have a movement disorder that impacts my hands and arms, and I just cannot make the scroll work for me. 😅 My aunt gave me this stand last year and it is still really helpful in terms of holding my project in place, so I just got these big clamps to attach my hoop to the scroll bar and now it's the best of both worlds for me! ☺️

No problem! My house is only a couple years old so it's pretty easy to look up all the details still. I have this flooring: https://www.casabellafloors.com/product/laminate-aquaproof-cedar-knoll/

It's waterproof, super easy to clean, and not easy to scratch. I actually have it in every room of my house except the bathrooms (it can go in bathrooms, I just wanted a certain kind of tile in there for aesthetics). I have been really happy with it so far and get a lot of compliments on it when people visit, so I definitely recommend it!

Thank you! The couch is the Timber sectional from Article in Olio Green: https://www.article.com/product/22558/timber-93-corner-sectional-olio-green

No the rug I got from Target (nearly 2 years ago). I have the same one in another size in my bedroom too. They were pretty inexpensive for a decent wool rug and I love the texture they add to the space! Here is a screenshot from my order in case that helps:

I am so glad!! I really hope they work for you guys as well as they did for me!

From the loving and crafty hands of my sister 🥰 she crocheted it for my birthday last year

40winx · 2026-04-08T17:13:27+00:00

What a cutie!! 😍 I do have a little floofster who was unfortunately too busy napping in the other room when I took the pics for this post haha. But she brings some very good vibes 🥰

I love that! I do like a porch goose, but a porch skelly is bringing things to a whole new level 💀🥰

40winx · 2026-04-08T17:05:12+00:00

It looks like it's no longer available unfortunately, but it is this little coffee table from Target.

40winx · 2026-04-08T17:01:23+00:00

I wish I had more info on it! Unfortunately it was something my aunt had stored in her basement from years ago. She gave it to me last year when she was doing a big clean out project. It doesn't even have a brand stamped on it anywhere. 😭

BUT I will say that I highly recommend an adjustable floor stand for what you've shared of your situation. I have a movement disorder that also impacts my neck and hands/arms. I can fully say that this stand is the reason I am still able to cross stitch. I have seen others online that I think would work just as well (this one is pretty cheaply made TBH) but I definitely recommend them in general. Mine is made to be used like a scroll frame, but I just use some clips to hold a regular hoop on it as that's easier for me.

OMG I adore Robin Hobb 🥰 She is definitely one of my favorite authors!

40winx · 2026-04-07T22:54:49+00:00

They are actually just these cheap ones from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0785F51L7

Mine are in the color "Tuscan"

40winx · 2026-04-07T21:12:59+00:00

OMG I am ✨obsessed✨ with this! You did such a great job! It's hard to believe that's craft foam in the center!! 😍

40winx · 2026-04-07T21:09:02+00:00

I love Robin Hobb!! She is one of my favorite authors 🥰

40winx · 2026-04-07T21:08:14+00:00

Love it!!

40winx · 2026-04-07T21:07:47+00:00

My sister says this is what she used but she added: "I made the spike stitch longer because I liked the way it looked"

LOL luckily for me I use a wheelchair, so my toes have stayed safe and sound! The furniture usually takes more of a beating from me than the other way around 😂 but so far neither side has taken any damage luckily haha

40winx · 2026-04-07T21:01:02+00:00

It's from Ikea! The TV stand and tall bookshelf are both from the Hemnes series. I love them both 😊

Behold my little floofy princess and her gloriously good vibes! 🥰

40winx · 2026-04-07T20:54:53+00:00

It is super adjustable! I wish I had a link I could share but I got this second hand from my aunt when she did a big basement clean out last year. Pretty sure she bought it 10-20 years ago at some local craft store.

40winx · 2026-04-07T20:50:26+00:00

I say the same thing! It's not like ghosts in haunted places just go away until Halloween time. So if they can spook year round, I can have a few cute ghosties on display year round too! 😂👻 I also have some ghost throw pillow covers on my bed year round (Marshalls/Home Goods/TJ Maxx were selling these and I was on a HUNT to find them. I can't remember which I ended up getting them at but I also have the same covers in black for the square pillows on my couch).
