My WIP 2011

Thanks everybody for your kind words: seems like you didn't forget me after all.

Today I want to show you my latest stitching. I've owned that kit for almost 10 years: I had bought it at Michael's on sale after Christmas. I always loved the colors and you may remember colors are the key to make me finish a project. That's why I always choose carefully

what I'm stitching. I know, you want to see so here we go: Yes it's a Christmas design !!! You may recognize an Ursulla Michael design.




I've started it in december 2011 and here is my yesterday's progress:





As you can see, i've stitched almost all the stockings. I still need to stitch the last on the right. There are lots of green in that one so it's not a surprise if I kept it for the end, right? I also need to do some backstitching on most of the stockings. I'm stitching it on an opalescent white lugana 28 count and it's really nice to stitch.

I have to admit it : I forgot to show one finished last time. Well, it's not completly finished as I didn't add the beads ... yet ! Let's face it: I've never beaded and even though everybody says it's easy, it does stress me out a little bit and I have nobody to show me how to do it so it's anunfinised fairy for now ...



I took a better picture of Friendship grow to show you :


Isn't it beautiful?

Of course, you can enlarge each picture if you want to have a better view.

Thnaks again for stopping by my dear stitching friends !!!

Your stockings are looking gorgeous. I LOVE both of your other pieces and I have yet to bead as well - I just avoid designs with beading although it is getting harder.

The stockings are so pretty. Not much to go before a finish :)

Beading does not stress me out but it does go really slowly for me. Still, the results is oh so worth it. All the bling ^.^

Friendship Grows is gorgeous. Unfortunately, I couldn't seem to click on the picture to enlarge it.

Hugs,
Veronica.
