Stay in touch part 3



Here is an update of Emma's Congdon Stay in touch design.

I am not a fast stitcher. The magazine says 35 hours for it.
Maybe 35 days???

Have a nice day

Stay in touch - Part 2



Hello,
Here is an update of my Stay in Touch project.
It is really relaxing to stitch. I have done a mistake with the keybord 
and so I have to pick the heat, the facebook logo....

But that is cross stitching.

Stay in touch - Part 1




Here is a photo of my new project.

Stay in touch designed by Emma Congdon (Cross Sitcher Magazine July 2017).
I stitch it for my Dad's 75. birthday 
(his birthday is in November so I have lots of time for other projects)

Merry X-Mas Kit 1



Yesterday I finished my ALDI X-Mas kit.
I used MADEIRA metallic thread 4014 and 4057 (a free cover gift from 
The World of Cross Stitching issue 261) for the ornaments and leaves.
It was tricky to stitch!!!
Now I have to buy a little 6" (15 cm) hoop and a festive ribbon.

Have a nice day

Blue Bird



I have stitched a blue bird.
Designed by Anette Eriksson.
I used blue variegated thread.
I am not sure what I do with my bird...

Here is a link about variegated thread:
