New project!

Here's my progress to date on two of my WIPs.  Sea Stars by Ink Circles is the one on the left.  The other one is a NEW WIP!  I know that I really shouldn't have started anything else, but in The World of Cross Stitch magazine they have a chart leaflet of four designs by one of my favourites - John Clayton.  I just had to start on this one - a glass vase with sunflowers, set against a window.  Best free gift ever for me personally - I'd like to get all four of them done eventually :)

Ozark Sampler bookmark completed!

I'm taking part in a SAL on the Ozark Sampler group, stitching something each month using their thread. This is a bookmark adapted from a design by Marianaliza - should have another border, but the floche ran out! Love using floche - only need one strand to get normal two strand coverage :)

Wonderful fob giveaway!

My friend Debra has a wonderful giveaway on her blog - one of her very own fobs.  I loved it so much I bought one when I was looking, lol.

Here's the link..

Pink Flamingo!

I just fancied doing something 'summery', and this flamingo fitted the bill!  I love doing Mill Hill, and this one was slightly 'different' with the legs added on at the end, not stitched.  It's finished as a fridge magnet, to cheer us up through these last days of winter.

A beautiful bookmark finish...

....and NOT by me, lol!

This one is my DD Teresa's first big finish - and it has taken her a year, but that's not as long as it's taken me to finish the one that I bought at the same time (Olympia last March). I'm so proud of her - she did it with practically no help - I did unpick a bit and restitched it when it went a little bit wrong at the end. I also helped her to do the beads on the 'V', and started her off sewing the ribbon on the back. But basically it is her own work!

St Patrick's giveaway (matches my theme at the moment!)
