Snowy Owl Finished.


Snowy Owl by Joan Elliott from Bewitching Cross Stitch Book.
Stitched on 28ct Jobelan 'Sky High by Polstitches.


Now I can get back to my own stitching. This is for Colin's mum and it is going to be framed.

I have also finished the first page on my Spirit HAED and nearly done with page two which is a partial page :-)

Monday Update

I started a new project called Snowy Owl by Joan Elliott from her Bewitching Cross Stitching book. It is for my MIL. Although she stitches herself she fell in love with it so I said I would stitch it for her.I am on a tight schedule as she is coming to visit this next weekend and I am trying to get it finished for then. It also has beading as well as back stitch and French knots.



Next up is Dragon's Lair. I was really getting into it but stopped to stitch the owl.



Last but not least Castles in the Air.


A close up of the area I am currently working on.



My Spirit HAED hardly got a look in this week, so no point doing an update on it for just a few stitches.

Evalina's Oldest UFO Challenge.

I saw Evalina's challenge on her blog and thought it would be fun to join in.
I have literally picked my oldest UFO which I started when I first started Cross Stitching.
Yes, it's a BAP! lol and I am just hoping there are no counting mistakes in it since I was literally a beginner when I started it.



It is designed by Joan Elliott.



As you can see, not a lot has been done to it. I am going to try and stitch on it on Tuesdays and The Virtual Stitch in's on ILCS.

Wish me luck because I am going to need it!
