I love the hardanger pieces - very effective with that variegated floss too

more lovely stitching

Wow - blink for a minute and Sarah has completed so many projects (lost count ).

Everything looks great!

Agi, yes the lion and tiger are a matching pair - they are Lanarte miniatures. The chart of each one advertises the other. Hopefully I will finish the tiger today; I got half of the border part done last night.

An enjoyable thread. Lions and tigers looking great, and the hardanger is, too.

Wow, I'm off for 4 days and you've done like 5 projects!! I love the fabric on the lion and tiger and the biscornu! Hardanger looking good as well, lovely colours and very neat for a first try!!

I have the energy saving bulbs at home too, but they're much brighter than normal ones! I must have the higher wattage ones I suppose

Here's the tiger all finished.....


And both animals together...


What shall I do next? Something completely different I think. Look out for another new thread later!

They look gorgeous!

Super finish!!!!!

A cute little set Sarah.

Wonderful projects, Sarah! I'm off for a few days, and come back to all of this work.

They are really great!

Fabulous Hardanger projects, it's something I'd like to try at some point.

Lovely projects, Sarah!

Thanks everybody. I'm actually quite impressed with myself for my Hardangar efforts. If I look closely at it I can see a few imperfections, but on the whole I'm pleased I got on so well with it. It does use a lot of Perle Cotton No 5 though (the thicker one) so I'll have to buy some more before I do any more of these. I've enough left to do about half another one. I might well give a larger Hardangar project a go in the future though, like a table runner or something.

Great projects Sarah! I love the colours of the biscornu, and the Hardanger has turned out very successful! What shade were you using for this again?

Mabel, it's called Mountain Stream but is also known as Multicolour 1355.
