Crystal Christmas....Not Much...

Progress so far....

There is another part being stitched, but I didn't unscroll the right part for photo shoot. Will reveal it in my next post.

Have a great weekend!

Crystal Christmas

Some of you may have noticed that I have been collecting stash on different floss secretly. Here and here.Yes, those are for one of my favorite design, Crystal Christmas by Mirabilia. This chart has been with me since last 6 years, can you imagine that? :>

I faced some difficulties on stitching Arctic Ray floss, I still feel that the floss is too thick to stitch on 32ct fabric. Perhaps you would share your experience with me. I would like to complete it seriously, hopefully by Christmas this year. Will keep you updated!

Hillside Travelers

I'm working on Hillside Travelers that started 2 days ago. It is fun and relaxing to stitch. However, I guess I would have very little progress this week, as I'm having lower back sprains and strains :( Gotta see doctor after DH get back home from work today.

Rose Quaker Sampler Framed!

I decided to frame this with gold painted frame, maroon soft board with non-reflective glass. 


And yes, the maroon soft board with gold lining, so that the red or brown color motifs stand out perfectly!

Rosey

Another Rose design?!?!?! Yes, I decided to start Rosey after the huge(at least for me!) Rose Quaker Sampler. Not only stitching the same rose series of project, I have been stitching on the same fabric too. Guess I'm addicted to 40ct fabric. 


Happy stitching!
