Hi Mabel, thankyou for the welcome :D I am stitching a Some Bunny design at the moment...Hello Bee. I love the pastel colours in the design. I've not done one of these before. I will post a pic when I have finished it. What are you stitching at the moment?
Just had a quick look in your webshots, your work is lovely, will go back for another longer look :D but the first pic I saw was the peacock...I did that too,I think mine was free kit in a magazine and I see you like margaret sherry .. me too. I have only completed the cat ina cup with the bee,so far, the others are on my long to do list :lol:

Hi Meerkat, I'm stitching lots of little things with all sorts of different silk threads -- I had a little freelance job last October and decided to blow most of it on stash :-)

The peacock was from a mag, I think, but I changed the outlines a bit and I think the beads weren't there originally, I like to change things a bit :-).

The cats-in-mugs are fun to stitch, aren't they? I also like the pastel shades in the somebunnies, one day perhaps I'll get round to one...
