I love seeing these designs, I'm going to have to save up and get one for myself! I'm glad to hear it's a pleasure to stitch!

Well stupidly, my next project has loads more beads (I'm a glutton for punishment, obviously ). But I'm really excited about starting it It's my first Chatelaine design and called Frosty Knotgarden.



It has some lovely silk floss including Gloriana, Caron Waterlilies and Silk N' Colours and lots of Petite Treasure Braid as you can see. There are also 14 little pots of beads The fabric is 32 count Belfast linen which I've never used before, so I'm not sure how I'll get on with it.

I was very impressed with European Cross Stitch who I used to kit up the project. Everything was delivered very quickly, the fabric is stitched all round the edges and the threads all came in their own Floss-Away bags. Really well presented and definitely a company I'll want to use again.

I'm really looking forward to getting started hopefully later on today

my word what a lovely lot of goodies as well as a beautiful chasrt

I love what you have done Susan and guess what it makes me feel like doing next project

[Oiralinde]

This is an amazing design and you are doing a beautiful design. You have more patience than me. I don't see myself doing anything like that. I can't wait to see how it looks finished!

Oh, I hadn't seen this thread before since I just joined last month. But I was searching "Chatelaine" and saw your gorgeous piece. It is just stunning and you're doing a fabulous job on it! Have you been able to work on it anymore since your
last update? Would love to see a new picture!

Great work!

[Slinky]

Susan, you have a LOT to answer for!!

I went for an idle browse on the European Cross Stitch site and clapped eyes on the Chatelaine mystery 2011 Christmas design. Next thing I know, I've signed up to the Yahoo Group with a view to doing this during 2011.
