Thanks ladies. I'm so glad I bought that charm. No clue what I will do with the other three in the set. There's a peppermint candy, a christmas light and a tag that says Merry Christmas on it. :thinks: I'm sure I'll find a use for them eventually.

Re: Brandi's Small Projects - 12/7 Peacock Feather started p

Post by geekishly »

Thanks for all the lovely compliments! I found the perfect frame for him at Micheal's today, so I'm looking forward to putting him in it. But I'm going to wait and get all my stitching done before I fuss with framing - as worst case I can give people the finished project and the frame.

Anyway, I started a new project today for my mom. She picked out a black messenger bag and I am stitching her a lovely peacock feather from the September '12 issue of Cross Stitcher magazine. I'm stitching 3 over 1 on 14 ct waste canvas with Weeks Dye Works "Mermaid" floss. But I might need to make a run to my LNS next week if the two skeins I have aren't enough. :thinks: I'm hoping they are, but I guess I will see.
