Christmas Calendar

Hurrah - I have finished the Christmas Calendar UFO. This was an inherited piece from a friend of my mum's and a bit of nightmare when I first started working on it - she stitches her crosses the other direction so I had to work on it sideways. Also the chart was probably the worst I have ever worked off, but all is forgotten now - cause it's done!! Finished 21st October 2011

So this is the top design

From Progress Pics

And this is the whole piece - when I first started on it:

And the whole piece - finished :)

Sheep... remember this

Monday, October 10, 2011 Posted In 2011 finishes Edit This 0 Comments »

I finished most of this for a friend almost a year ago, and she was meant to finish the sheep facing us herself, but I just visited her and she still hadn't done it so I said I would - didn't take me long at all. I think it's such a cool, fun and sweet design, but I would never stitch it again - all that white!! I will frame it for them now and it will be my Christmas pressie for them.

The Canterbury Bell Fairy

Wednesday, August 10, 2011 Posted In 2011 finishes Edit This 0 Comments »

Bells that ring from ancient towers-

Canterbury Bells-

Give their name to summer flowers-

Canterbury Bells!

Do the flower-fairies, playing,

Know what those great bells are saying?

Fairy, in your purple hat,

Little fairy, tell us that!

"Naught I know of bells in towers-

Canterbury Bells!

Mine are pink or purple flowers-

Canterbury Bells!

When I set them all a-swaying,

Something, too, my bells are saying,

Can't you hear them--ding-dong- ding--

Calling fairy-folk to sing?

This was originally a cover kit, but I stitched it over one on 25 count which makes it really small and pretty. It's only about 2 inches by 2 inches.

The Candytuft Fairy

Monday, April 11, 2011 Posted In 2011 finishes Edit This 0 Comments »

The Candytuft Fairy
Why am I "Candytuft"?
That I don't know!
Maybe all the fairies
First called me so;
Maybe all the children,
Just for a joke;
(I'm in the gardens
Of most little folk).

Look at my clusters!
See how they grow;
some pink or purple,
some white as snow;
Petals uneven,
Big ones and small;
Not very tuffy -
No candy at all!
Finished 9th April 2011
