The stained glass design is from an ancient New Stitches - designed by Mary herself.

I'd doing my poor neglected Noon Basking on 28 count luguna - cream - but he's very much a UFO at the moment, but hopefully soon....

I used the beads on the Tree of Life as I can't do french knots to save my life! But I like the effect of the small black beads myself ;)

The beads worked great--I've done that a time or two myself--but thank goodness, I've finally practiced enough to do a decent french knot.
Thanks for the info on the stain glass--thinking frantically how to get a copy of said magazine now :lol: :lol:

I suppose it's ok that you haven't posted pics in awhile, because you've definitely still been stitching. Your pieces look great!

All your work is lovely but I especially love those stained glass pieces, so effective and the dolphins are gorgeous!
The praise God chart is lovely. :wub: I might have a look for that one. :)

TB, I did that one as a bookmark (3 bookmarks...) and I've still got the chart. You are very welcome to borrow it as I won't be stitching it again in a hurry :-)

Now gone to their home. My hay people were really happy with the Tree of Life as well - so I'm very happy!
