johannauk's stitchy pics - Santa added 7th November

Post by johannauk »

Posting a thread here as I hope to be sharing lots of progress with you over coming weeks - mostly small projects knowing me! Thanks for looking!

Here is the butterfly I showed in it's beginning on the General board - halfway there now, plan to get this one finished today :)

I wasn't sure if I liked the colours at first, now I love them!

Looking good! I like the candy-cane effect (I know that's usually red and white but it does remind me of them :-))

I get a candy cane feel from it too, Mabel :wink: But that's because my favorite candy canes are the Hawaiian Punch ones and some of them come in red and green :wink: The design is looking great! :applesauce:

It's true, now Mabel's pointed it out, I can see it as a candy cane effect as well!

I hope the festive butterfly will look nice on one of the quilts, I am actually really happy now with how it turned out! I posted this on the other thread, but anyone interested, the thread used is Carrie's Creations 'Holly Days'
