Autumn – week 2

September 11, 2007

I am very upset!  I just found a hole in my fabric, up the very top near the clippie part of the frame, I am pretty sure my stand has done this :(   Luckily it is high enough up it should be fine when framed….. but!!  It is very upsetting and my cheap o stand will be finding a new home!  The problem is finding a decent one here is flippen hard….. maybe I should go back to using a scroll frame?  Does anyone use those anymore?

*hugs*

Photos :)

September 3, 2007

Here are the photos for the beginning of the month :)

My lovely Mum arranged a weekend away for Mike and I and looked after the kids :) We had a lovely relaxing time at a homestay in Peel Forest.

Here is Crescent Dreams, stitched on Countrystitch Kiwi Illusions (can’t find the name but its violet or something) 32 count Belfast using Noreen’s green conversion, instead of the treasures and the stars I used 3 green swarovski crystals and attached them with a green shaded Kreinik, nice and sparkly in person. All that is left is baby’s name which will have to wait til baby is born and we find out boy or girl :)

Next up is Cirque des cercels, which I am stitching on the sly for Mike’s birthday in January :)   He likes it just like the chart photo :)

I am stitching 2 over 2 and it is growing quite quickly :)

Now we have the latest Midnight Boo Progress picture, it doesn’t look like much but there are a lot of colour changes in those pieces of hair!!

And last but not least, a new start…… I couldn’t resist the stitching competition on the Mira bb, from the 1st of September to the 1st of December, my goal is to completely stitch the top half of her, minus the treasures which I don’t have, I might look at trying to replace them, as we were away on the 1st I got quite a bit done and then lazed around on Sunday afternoon stitching on her too :)

She is being stitched on Country Stitch Kiwi Illusions Seaside, 32count Belafst.  Started 1st September 2007

Hope you are all well!!
