Crystal Christmas.....Completed!

After about two and half years of stitching, I finally finished Crystal Christmas in late January. It is considered as one of my "huge" project like Eastern Treasures.

And now, I would like to present you the completed Crystal Christmas.......without the designated Mill Hill Crystal Treasure, but replaced with Swarovski crystal star pendant :)

Design: Crystal Christmas © Mirabilia
Fabric: 32ct Belfast White Linen

Thread: DMC, Kreinik Metalic, Raiwbow Gallery
Bead: Mill HIll

How could you resist the gorgeous snow angle who is holding with 3 draped bead roping on hands? Let alone the chorus of fa-la-la-la-la's making your heart burst out.



The Mill Hill gold petite glass beads really made the dress stand out well.



To be frank, I feel so relieved after finishing this piece of work. I am still considering if I should start the Angel Proclamation, which has been claimed as companion to Crystal Christmas. I bought this design years back and yet it is still sitting quietly in my stash.

Crystal Christmas.....Is Back Finally

As what the title said, yes....Crystal Christmas is back after long MIA! 

A lot has happened over the last two and half years. I went back to corporate world after stop for almost three years, but quit after working only half year. Then run a child enrichment center, closed down after getting pregnant. My baby girl is getting 3 month old, feel like going back to corporate world again. LOL.....

I stitched quite a bit during my second trimester. I seriously thought that I could finish this piece before the baby born. Oh well.....Just too uneasy. Especially with a 4 year old cheeky boy around. Nevertheless, there is a progress I would like to present to you.

 More hard works to be done on this part, as there is a missing angel on the left :)
Part I

I have issue to look for the Star charm to be stitched on top of the X'mas tree. Apparently, this charm has stop from producing. Oh well....I have to look for its repl
Part II

Look at the two dancing angels. They are just too adorable!

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!
