Thank you everyone for all your kind comments on my Dobby finish in my last post, glad you liked him!
I was determined to squeeze in one Halloween finish this year, so sorry it's a bit late but please Happy Dance with me as I have just finished . . .
Little Witch ~ complete kit by Shepherd's Bush
Loved this one and it stitched up so quickly, the muted colours are gorgeous and as always the silks provided are a joy to work with.
The pumpkin face button comes with the kit. Nice hair!!!
Anyone who knows this design will notice I have not stitched 2 horizontal rows of pattern at the bottom, one was a vine and flower and the other a zigzag but I wanted this design to match a couple of others I've already completed so . . .
Now they all match and have the same satin stitch triangular finish at the bottom.
Ssshhhhh! I'm not shouting from the rooftops but another birthday has come and gone ~ like Christmases they just come around too quick!
My dear friend Lesleyanne remembered me though and I received a lovely parcel from her, she had not pre-warned me that anything was on its way, so it was a complete surprise and I was thrilled to bits with all that she had chosen to send me . . .
Three fat-quarters of pretty fabrics, co-ordinating ribbons and tassel, Bent Creek 'Smell the Flowers' chart and . . . OMG! deep breath . . . 7 skeins of Belle Soie ......... just the touch of them is good enough, let alone the colours she chose and the names ~ Butterscotch, Mudpie, Plush Plum, Old Crow, Attic Tea, Sister Scarlet and Vanilla Pudding ~ now which shall I eat stitch with first!
Thank you so much Lesleyanne, you have truly spoilt me and your kindness means the world xxx
The sun must have been shining down on me as I was also lucky enough to win Vickie's giveaway of the Just Cross Stitch Christmas Ornament 2012 issue. I told Vickie they are literally like golddust here in the UK so it was a lovely prize to win and when it arrived Vickie had also added the most gorgeous beaded pins ever ~ so pretty ~ between Lesleyanne and Vickie I am a very happy bunny and have lots of projects ahead of me ~ you are both very special blogging friends to have xxx
Thanks for stopping by
HAPPY STITCHING
