Mr Frog is getting around again. Bad froggie. We all need to get our needles out and give him a good jab from all sides.

Congrats for your 16 years and have a wonderful day.

Anew camera and stash shopping sounds good when do we start? :lol:

I managed to do a mini stash raid Saturday a.m., and got the beads to be used for the stars in this dolphin project. I also treated myself to a decent pair of embroidery scissors, and an easy clip Elbesse frame.

Then I took the family out for a meal and a few drinks for our eldest step-daughters 20th. The OH decided that in order to get some quality pics of the proceedings, I should have my new digi camera a few days early :dance:

So one of my first test-shots is the dolphin project, post-froggie :ribbit:

The new camera picks out the colours soooo well :wub:

Managed to re-stitch the frogged bits earlier in the week. The beads and the remainder of the outlining and long stitches are also complete... so apart from maybe adding a couple more beads, the project is complete.

I'll try to post a pic later today

Thanks to all for the congrats and support. Some virtual :choc: :cake: to all of you :wub:

pic taken while the project was still on the roller frame, unwashed, and slightly creased, but you get the general idea
