Emmylou's Current WIPs

Post by Emmylou »

Well this time I'm working on two projects.

One is DMC Disney's Piglet: Annoyed 'cause I have to :ribbit: though I love the little guys in real life just not the cross stitch world :doh:

Image

Then there's the freebie from cross stitcher which is a needle booklet, I'd post the final pic but the pattern is visible but here's what I've done:

Image

I find this horrible as it's cross stitching on felt with a soluble canvas. The needle they provided refused to go through the felt so I had to use one of my own and even that has a bit of trouble going through, ended up shoving the needle in my finger. It took me about 2 hours to get as far as I have so it's testing my patience.

Happy Stitching everyone! Time for a :tea:

:applesauce: great start on both of these. Hope your finger isn't too sore. I hate when needles won't go easily through the fabric.

I've got the mag with that kit in it. Been wondering whether to do it or not - On the whole, I think maybe I won't! :wink:

But nice work on all your small projects! :applesauce: :applesauce:

:applesauce: The flowers are so pretty and bright and cheery. Piglet looks good so far. If you didn't tell, we wouldn't even know you had any problems with the annoying :ribbit:
