Wednesday 3rd December

Finished all 10 Trees last night just need to wait for my camera batteries to recharge then I can post some piccies. really pleased with how they have turned out, they only took 2 hours ish to stitch so was quite chuffed.Still havent decide how Im going to finish them but Ive got 20 days to decide.


I have these Key Fobs leftover for sale. hte can be used as keychains or as Scissor keeps. I find them great for scissors and it has a keyring clamp, you put it on the scissors and the open just enough to cut the thread but not enough to cut the fabric or person!

Ive just ordered these 3 Mirabilias from the states. Ive never done one before but I have loved Fern and Tigerlily since I saw them. Holly is a new release and I think its only right that I should treat myself once in a while.Ill let you know how I get on.

At the moment Im working on Name trees by Helga Mandl for christmas, I have 3 to do then the set is finished. It takes around 3 hours to complete a tree. Im using Variagated threads to the effect is brilliant and unique. Pictures to follow soon.
