Great start C_F.

I love these designs so I'm looking forward to seeing this develop. I've got all of this series on my 'to do' list. Are you going to do the others eventually too?

coffee_freak · Post by **coffee_freak** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 5:09 pm

yes i do plan on doing them. I have the summer one to do next..and another forum member has sent off the Fall one to me..and the winter when it comes out.
eventually I will do them all..lol

This is such a cute pattern, I love seeing it develope like that!

missing beads on the grey mushroom...

sorry not more exciting like the actual fairy..lol..but it made more sense to me to finish the long stretch of grass and animals across the bottom and work my way up..lol

its when you stitch one arm of the x..then use your needle to seperate the two pieces of floss so it lays nice and flat..then you do the top arm of the x and seperate that too.
some only do that to the top of the x.
