Looks fabulous in its frame. Love your 2 little ones and also your finished ufo. Yes just clicked on it and it is the one I did a few years ago. TT is gorgeous - except for that back stitching.

Great finishes

I agree I love all the TT's I see I have a few stitched up and abandoned, and piles of mags laying arounf to be started.
Will be digging them out now and again and getting them done!
I have started doing them on evenweave instead of aida now, but its the aida ones I have abandoned

Decided to start doing a rotation and added a 3rd project into the mix.
Took on everyones 10 hour rotation, works out to about 2 evenings for me so I thought this would fit nicely

End of first bash at it. Should have got the blue finished but i managed

time and time again

Great start! Love the Dictionary of..... series - just wish you could buy them as charts rather than kits. Looking forward to your progress on this one, it's such a fun design!

Thanks everyone!

I can part with the chart once its finished im pretty sure its madeira threads though I seen a page with them all listed

I didnt read anything that came with it just fired right in

I love Bothy designs this one's great but doing it would make me hungry

Lovely stitching

I'll keep an eye out for your updates

I love this one! My mom and I have been decorating cakes for over 20 years. I just haven't taken the plunge to purchase the kit. I'd prefer to purchase the pattern, but unfortunately Bothy doesn't do that. Maybe some day when my schedule slows down and I can pick up the needle more than just once a week.

Thanks

Its now the unicorns turn and its Krenik braid, now I remember why this was a large UFO

millymolly · Post by **millymolly** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 7:02 pm

Havent been in the house much this week for bigger projects so managed to get 2 little ones done though.

Done this one before but I love it, this ones for my bedroom pinboard so I can put the mounted one back into my mums photo album!

I found this one searching through my grans magazines, I have a box full of 40 mags with little free kits to get done.... That wasnt even half of what I could have taken, Looking through the mags though theres a million things I would love to do!!
Just been to hobbycraft

needed a few threads to finish off 2 UFOs a lady with hat for my gran as her sister in law passed away during the week, Ive been meaning to finish it for ages for her. A Kylie sampler for my dad which i started about 4 years ago. Fathers day is coming up so that is getting finished and framed and the Kylie greatest hits to go with!

This cost the best part of Â£27 I was shocked. Keeping to online from now!!
Also wasnt very impressed with selection, couple colours I needed weren't there and not much choice in fabric theres usually loads! Was looking for a nice pale blue for some penguins, they shall have to wait

Thought I'd share these socks aswel, I love everything green so when I had a jaunt around primark I had to buy them

Those are adorable pieces that you did and how good of you to be doing so many for family. I know they must appreciate it. And it looks like you also added to your stash. I couldn't tell if you included the box with the fabric and threads. Sounds like a lot of money to me for 10 skeins and 2 fabric packages, but I don't know how big the fabric is, so maybe it isn't that much money. Always good to add stash when you can though.

I got 28 count evenweave 20"x27" and a Aida 14 count 20" x24", its been a while since I stashed some fabric so I'm not sure if thats dear or not I bought a roll the last time I added to the stash and its still not ran out

I don't know what to do with those cats though they are currently sitting in a drawer where my finished pieces wait to be framed/ put on a card.

Thanks Rose.

This is A La mode from Crossstitcher 211 I think.
Absolutely loved doing BS on this one and seeing her come to life!
