Nearly Half Way There.

Hi there UFO followers. Here's my update on Breaktime. There have been one or two frog visits but they have all deserted for the time being. The pictures show the last few weeks, frogging and redoing and then finally progress. I'll soon be changing my out look and going for the head and shoulder part. Now that will be interesting. Next time I'll take a photo unrolled again. Keep watching.





Also at long last is the framed Carousel Horse. I am very pleased with the finished result and all the grumbles and moans while I was sewing it are forgotten. Many thanks to Chris at Nimble Thimble for such great framing.

Looking forward to seeing some more of your progress, to all of you out there Enjoy your stitching and Happy stitching to you.

Dragons Update - May

Sorry I haven't been around much lately. Those who read my personal stitching blog know that work has been crazy and I'm still quite sick from my surgery.
However that said, I've been trying to stitch.

Here is my dragons update to date:

Sail Away . . .

This is a close up of the

bottom of my

Sail Away!

I put a glow in the dark

blending filament in the

lighthouse

and

upstairs window

as though someone was waiting

for their loved one to return

from the sea.

Happy Dance, Happy Dance and Happy Dance!!!

I got this one framed finally

and it is one of my favorite pieces.

I put two suede mats on it and

floated them away from each other by

about 1/4 inch.

It gives the piece depth.

I used the kit but added some silk

I got from a company called

Down Under.

They are variegated and very soft.

I used them

in the Quaker motifs and for the water.

I didn't put in the big flowers, added some

extra sheep and changed

the alphabet to my favorite.

It is truly one of my own and I love it.

Thanks for looking your comments mean the

world to me.

God Bless your stitching fingers.
