So warm and beautiful!

The B/S really sets it off and it has come alive. WELL DONE LUDMILA

Thank you, ladies, for your kind comments. Now - to my good old WIP "British Waterways", by Anchor.

I absolutely agree!!!

Golly, doesn't the backstitch make a difference -- and it was wonderful to begin with. Lucky person getting this for Christmas!

Last night finished stitching and edged this Easter towel. On Monday it is going as a birthday present. It was the 11 th towel stitched by me of this pattern over the last 10 years or so. If you see a Kievite with this towel on his/her Easter basket, you may be sure the person is my friend, as this design is extremely rare here.

What a lovely gift! And to stitch the piece so many times, too. I can just see the hemstitch peeking out of the photo, which also looks lovely. Finishing a piece is almost as challenging as the original stitching, I think sometimes. A beautiful hem is a thing of beauty.

how beautiful this is, such a wonderful gift for your friend. Love the spring flowers, beautiful colours, & a peaceful scene overall. This is so nicely stitched too

What a beautiful gift! And a lovely reminder of spring as winter moves into full force.

Lyudmilla that is amazing and oh so beautiful, colourful and fabulously stitched. Well Done on getting it finished.

That is so beautiful such gorgeous colours well done on another fantastic finish

The latest finish.

Sorry about its look- before washing and no other photo of it. Just to show you the second image from the series.

They are so sweet! Are they characters from a series of stories or something like that?

My long-suffering WIP

Simply beautiful

I have 6 charts of this girl from aa magazine which was published in 2005 or 2006. I remember having doubts whether to keep them or not as I normally dont stitch "cuties". But having stitched the first one, I knew I would stitch them all and turn into an afghan or quilt for some kid.

Cant find out the original pictures from which the charts were made. Maybe some cartoon?

The little girls are sooooo cute! and your Venice (I assume since there is a gondola I think) is looking lovely! Great updates!

The little girls are lovely and, as always, beautifully stitched.
All the details on your Venice project are impressive. I love the shadings and colours

Love the "Little Ladies" they are gorgeous nad beautifully stitched as always.

WOW your Venice one is amazing I do hope you are going to continue with it soon.
