Watch out for crafting

I finished the stitching on the button covers for the watch. I decided after struggling to stitch a full cross stitch over one thread using one strand of floss to put it away for awhile. Last nite I decided to just treat the patterns like needlework and do only half cross stitches. As you can imagine the finished designs are so tiny that it actually came out better and went much faster. The finished designs are spaced apart because they will be cut out in little circles.
Here are the designs once they have mounted on the button forms. The material is finely woven and easy comes unraveled. It also stretches so you have to be careful when centering it on the button cover.
Hurray, the button covers are glued to the watch using "Bond 527" cement that is great for metal to metal glueing. Now all I need to do is take the watch to a jeweler to get the battery changed and it will be set to give to my Mom. She bought the kit but was having touble with the tiny stitching and the poor fabric that they included. I changed it to a more tightly woven linen that had a bit of antique yellow color to it. All in all the project came out wonderful

I wove in all of the ends of the Remsen Blanket so that is finished. On to the next project, what will it be? Only the craft gods know for sure.
