Mine's almost done. Guess having nasty cold and not being able to concentrate on editing is worth something...

Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
I would love to join....but i have no idea on the finishing...all i know to do is frame...nothing quite as creative as Rose's needle keep.
I just can't see how you guys make all this stuff...i have never sewn or anything...i have a friend whose mother sews a lot..she makes quilts etc I guess i need to get her to teach me some of the tricks!!

Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
You could still join in and frame your piece if you wished. I'm sure any of us would love that!
I'm not much of a sewer myself and I think I've whip-stitched 99% of my projects when I've made them into something as it's the simplest way to put something together neatly - LOL!

What a pretty egg Kell!
The needlekeep is a really good idea, Rose, what a great finish! (And the wording is clever too )

Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
what is whip stitching?
Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
If you've got two pieces of fabric with a backstitched border, you then run the thread through those stitches to pull the pieces together.
Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
Here is a tutorial for whip stitch.

Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
No, it's not too late at all. The sign up will remain open right up to the send date (end of March), at which point, everyone who has finished will be allocated a person to send to (which will be another person who has indicated that they're finished). Anyone who has not said they are finished by the end of March will not be allocated to anyone I'm afraid - I want to make sure that everyone who stitches receives something in return and also provide that "out" if people end up not having time to stitch after all.

Re: Easter Stitched Egg Swap?
Here is my completed design I have just realised that my choice is the same as Rose's (sorry Rose) May be better if we did not get each other!
I have made mine into a little needle book
