Finished the two "Windows on the World" bookmarks :dance: :dance: so that means I will have a new design for the Counted Wishes Festival.

Still hopeful that I may be able to include Windmills.

If you promise not to tell anyone, here is a tiny picture of the bookmarks (must keep them sort of secret until the Festival :-))

Not really nice to tease us this way, Mabel. :P I am so intrigued by a Hardanger design named Windmills, and with your creativity I know it is beautiful!

Well, there are a few hints on my latest FoF -- but it's one of the "rules" (well, serious requests) of the Festival that there should be at least one and preferably more designs in your booth that have not been seen before the Festival; and one can see their point!

Anyway, I'll be working on some Guildhouse models now, and those I can show you without any problems :-)

Just catching up after being away for a while - wow, Mabel! Your snippets are really cool, and the bookmarks-that-don't-exist are really pretty.

A friend of mine turned the bookmarks I gave her in to pins and her friends in Eastern Stars want me to make more pin like things. Your smalls are going to perfect for those. Time to shop your site!

turned them into pins? I'm intrigued -- how do you turn a bookmark into a pin :thinks: ?

Over the weekend I have had a nice relaxing play with stash (relaxing and useful at the same time), and I finished a model stitch for the autumn term Guildhouse course.

This one is based on Flora, but has been re-jigged to provide a "re-cap" of stitches the students learned in the first course, but with the addition of double-sided Kloster blocks. They will stitch them in white and one shade of Caron; the one I used here is called Tiffany Rose.
