Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
Firstly, you shouldn't have pushed yourself so hard. Secondly, well, it's a perfect finish, especially the inclusion of the coloured mat.
Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
It’s absolutely beautiful. I hope you recover quickly. Take care of you.

Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
I feel much better now, just a phlegmy cough, and my isolation ends tomorrow. After falling in love with the Heritage Crafts posies I've kitted out this new one which I'm going to make a start on very soon. Also still have Bothy Daffodils on the Lowery stand but haven't touched that in over a week.

Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
Pleased to hear you "got away with it" and are on the mend . Is that tomorrow evening you are cleared from isolation so that you get a full couple of days recover therapy to work on your lovely bunch of flowersNicola Main wrote: Mon Feb 07, 2022 11:31 am I feel much better now, just a phlegmy cough, and my isolation ends tomorrow.

The posy design is beautiful. I’m glad you’re feeling better. Take it easy and listen to your body.

Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
I'm alternating between Wild Flower Posy and a new Bothy Threads called Poppy Field. Here are progress pics of both

Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
You have some very varied and lovely projects there, Nicola.
I love those flower designs. Friendly fox face is appearing too.

Ooohh, it's blissful Mr. Fox!
You're stitching him beautifully Nicola, and I think you're really going to enjoy stitching him.

Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
I STILL have the fox on the frame and I STILL have wild flower posy on the frame, however... I have started the yearly Vervaco/Lanarte SSA which is a full kit you have to buy to get the threads and fabric but the chart is split and given to you via email and on the Facebook group in 16 parts every week on a Friday. This year it's a Marjolein Bastin design so I just knew I had to get it. This is part 1 all finished and about to start part 2! Part 3 comes out this Friday

Re: Nicola's Needlework 2022
Oh my, that is so beautiful, and beautifully stitched.
I think my brain would have a meltdown if I had a stitch-a-long on the go as well as two other projects, I really admire those who can stitch multiple projects. It's a good job I'm not on Facebook.
I love Marjolein Bastin's designs, that reminds me, I have Marjolein Bastin's Flowers book somewhere, I must dig it out again.
