New Project - Ballerina Beauty ***COMPLETED***

Post by nicgoss »

So.....I never thought I wanted to do XS EVER again after my Millie XS as it took over my life, but a day away from it and I don't know what to do with myself! :roll: :roll:

So this is my new project.....

Its something I wouldn't normally go for, but starting to branch out from doing my normal animal pictures and wanted to do something a little different.

Just in the middle of sorting all the threads out and I can get started. Don't you just love starting a new project? :dance: :dance:

Nothing as good as starting a new project and what a lovely one you've chosen. Is this a kit or just a chart? What fabric are you stitching on and do you have any "special" threads for it??

I have seen this pattern for a few years now and always admired it. I don't have anyone that would appreciate it but good luck. Will watch the progress with interest.

How exciting!! I LOVE prepping for a new project, and you've chosen such a beautiful design.

Please tell us what fabric you'll be using and size of finished project - it looks complicated!!

Good luck :applesauce:

Nic don't keep us in suspense! Have you started it yet or are you still prepping? What size is it and how many colours.

It is a lovely picture!
