hermelien´s special stitches

Post by hermelien1989 »

Today I wanted to do something difficult with stitching
So I started Heart of my heart from abi Gurden

Image

Image
And I ordered 2 pieces of 28 count lugana at 123-stitch.com. the colors are Angel Blush and Miracle Mint.
Those are for the tree of stitches and The great escape.

And I ordered mill hill beads (mixed package) and needles for the beads.

The fabric came more than 20 years ago with a kit :P it was the only linnen that I have :P

I will start the great escape in 2 or 3 weeks, it usually takes that long for the stuff to arrive.

here is the latest update....

Now I have to go and make home-work (maybe) :P

here is a update from heart of my heart:

Image

I will frog the nae and then stitch it again in a dark-red. First I used a different color, but I think it became to light

And the fabric and beads came for the great escaope and the tree of stitches :dance:
Image

It will take a while before I will start those because I am trying to work more hours. I have to do an internship for 640 hours, and because I'm still sick I worked only half days till last week.
Now I'm tryining to work more hours and it really goes good :) I will have to work in my summervacation (I have 2 weeks of the 8 left), but I will get all my hours done :dance:
