Heres a HAED I finished on Tuesday and framed yesterday along with another HAED.
Both were stitched on DMC White 18# Aida with DMC Floss. They took roughly 3 weeks each to stitch, they also had very little confetti stitching which was fantastic.

Well today has been a sorting out, making up kinda day. My Fibro has shifted for bad to worse so i havent been able to do much. I have been finishing off making some ornies. this is from a Round Robin I was in in 2008. Ive added some Dress It Up Buttons and lsome Bells and Light Strings I had. Im very pleased with it. Its a shame it can only be out in December though I want it all year!

The design is Christmas Reindeer by Lucie Heaton stitched on 14Ct Aida with DMC Flosses.

Monday 20th April

Bliss Fairy will be done on 16# Aida from Enchanted Fabrics colour Celadon.

Here's my latest finish, another Mirabilia. This is Lilly, stitched on 28# Autumnal Abstract E/Weave, dyed by Emma (emmaslittleangels on Webshots). The fabric is fab to stitch on andpersonally I think Em has dyed it to perfection.
This was a joy to stitch, it seemed to stitch up in no time at all. It took me approx 5 days to finish.

Here is my next WIP Petal Fairy on Enchanted Fabrics 16# Aida Raindrop.

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.
