Fiona, Lorraine, Carol and I have all joined up as a group. Thanks to Fiona for organising how that pieces should be swapped around, I just couldn't get my head around it!
After tracing the pattern I got quite inspired, especially once I got the colours out for the stitching.
I have stitched and stitched these last few nights and ta da!!!
Just a few sneak peeks for now.... Not sure if we are supposed to show and tell all?
I made a little mistake though, I actually drew the square border around the picture before I noticed it wasn't on the original, but it stitched up fine, I think. I also had to add something. I always seem to like to do this.....
Here are some peeks.
Thanks for the lovely response to my 'free homes wanted'. I will draw a name out tomorrow night!
Have a lovely weekend. I am off to craft group Saturday after an absence of a few months so I am looking forward to catching up with the girls.
Happy stitching!
Marina
The pictures are pretty Marina. I don't think my stitching would stand up to such close scrutiny. Lovely work.
ReplyDeleteYour stitching looks gorgeous as always - Loving those colours can't wait to see how everyone's turns out.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Saturday out.
Oh it looks delightful Marina. I especially like the little spider and his web. I haven't heard from Carol yet so can't send mine on until I do, so I guess there will be a little bit of a hold up on mine.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so beautiful.....
ReplyDeleteShow and tell is perfect......
I have started .....
When do we have to send it on?

ReplyDeleteJust lovely!
ReplyDeleteCan I ask which thread you've used or how many strands?
Marina, I absolutely love this! I want to learn how to do this type of embroidery! Steph
