This is Bracken Cottages by Derwentwater - the second of a triptych with scenery from Scotland I'm working on. It's a really enjoyable piece - I do love my blackwork now and then!

This is a kit from RTO based on a painting by Brent Heighton. I was ill a lot in the winter of 2012, so this was all I had the energy to do, so finished it in no time.

So the day has come - 25th December - the big reveal:

The paper has been ripped off and there's a beautiful, glittery gift box standing in front of me:


I open it up...

*sniff, sniff* what's this? The unmistakable smell of...


Yes!! It is - LUSH ballistics!

Moll is very happy

Thank you to Maddy for being my partner!

I also had a couple of stitchy gifts under the tree, this was from Sarah for the Christmas ornie exchange - I think it's simply stunning. Stitched on glitter fabby and with metallics:

Secrets round up

Sunday, December 25, 2011 Edit This 0 Comments »
Through the year there's always a few finishes that I can't show as they were going to be gifts, but now  - at Christmas - all is revealed, and here they are:


First this is a small plant sign that I made for my dear friend Colly. She and hubby Richard both love their garden, so I thought it was apt. Finished 2nd Feb 2011

Pic to come

Then this is my offering for this years Stitch Factor. It's first part of a triptych by Derwentwater - it's called  Mountain Pines. Finished 31st May 2011

From 2011



Then comes an ornie that I stitched for my friend Maria - who I partnered for in the Advent exchange - it was a gift on one of the last days before Christmas. Finished 5th Aug 2011


From 2011


Here is my small Christmas gift for Colly this year - it's a needle book - the design featured in Gift of Stitching. Finished 5th Aug 2011.


From 2011


This piece is called Make a wish and was stitched for a very good friends baby quilt - a quilt put together by all sorts that friends have made using all sorts of crafts. It was actually a cover kit originally. Finished 4th November 2011.


From 2011


This final piece is called Christmas Butterfly and was my offering for this year's Christmas ornie exchange on ACN. It was a fun, different, but very hard piece to stitch. It's a 3D piece with a clip, so each wing had to be stitched twice and was stitched on plastic canvas with metallic thread - phew! Got there in the end though and it looks bloomin' brilliant I think. Finished 2nd December 2011.
