Pengwenn's small projects--another finish

Post by Pengwenn »

When I ran into the disaster with my Asian Home project I decided to start some smaller easier one. The two that I've been working on are A Star is Born for my niece and Adobe House for my parents. Here's what they should look like and the progress I've made. One of these years I'm also going to make bookmarks for everyone in my family so I'm lumping all my small projects together (small meaning anything smaller than a sheet of paper).

What it should look like:

My progress (just backstitching left which I hate):

I hate backstitch too. My last project with a lot of backstitch, I only finished because I joined the UFO club LOL.

Both of your projects look great!

This is my next smaller project. It's a thank you for a Canadian friend I play video games with on Xbox Live. We make fun of him saying "eh" but he's a great sport about it. He did a huge favor for me and I wanted to make something to say thank you. I got the pattern from patternsonline.com.

I'm doing it on 14ct Desert Sky fabric from silkweavers.com 3 over 1 because I wanted a fuller look to the piece. This is my progress after two days.
