I got it as a stash hand me down..lol..i'm not sure..but its 14ct and it is soooo stiff..like potato sack type material..
not sure what it is though..

don't much like working on it..cause it's so stiff..but it goes well w/ that pattern

They are all really great. Each one a treasure for who ever recieves them.

finished another today..
i got bit by the bug.

this one i changed a lot! i used beads instead of white pearl cotton for the snowflake..
and i have NO idea how to do a turkey stitch for the snowball in her hand..
and the thought of stitching then cutting makes my skin crawl..maybe i'll practice on scrap fabric..so I used metallic sparkly white for the snow ball..and I left off the
letters "snow time" by her feet. I stitched on 14ct rose aida instead of the 32ct it calls for so the letters looked all crazy so i frogged them.

I plan on doing the boy one today too..also making the same changes.

Really good. I like the bead-snowflakes. What is a turkey stitch?

Posted: **Sat Nov 01, 2008 6:24 pm**

i have been searching the net for a how to and only have been more confused..
the end result is to end up w/ loops which you cut to make a pom pom sorta thing..

plz someone help us! lol
