My La-d-da finish!

Okay, first up is my finish of Sarah Lowell - this one has taken me a while because it came as a kit with the wrong fabric which I stitched half the flower on before I realised - yes I'm a bit slow... that the fabric was wrong and my thread colour didn't stand out against the fabric - so I had to put this one down while I waited for the right fabric and some more silks to arrive from the U.S - insert pout - however she's done and now if you see the fabric has wrinkles - deliberately I presume - but I really feel like ironing them out - am I being too obsessive - what do you think?

I framed my By the Bay Needleart SAL piece myself in an old frame I had stashed away - I had intended on admiring it for a few days - but as soon as my 5yr old daughter saw it - she snatched it up and took it to her room to be displayed there - I am happy she likes it :)

I turned my Always bee yourself - into a stand-up - I have no previous experience in finishing - so this is my first attempt - note to self - look for glue that is non toxic - so 3 year old son will not get high while pressing the stand-up against his nose and inhaling even though being told not to!

My Somebunny is also finished - I intend to pull my still-in-the-box sewing machine out and turn this into a small soft pillow for my daughter to cuddle if she so wish :)
The bee and the bunny are both freebies from Cosmic Handmade - she has so many cute designs which I will be stitching more of -

now for my new starts - have joined the Papillon Creations Sal - am hopefully going to gather my fabric and threads for this one today - I had better hurry as everyone is already on part 3! Hopefully I shall be able to catch up as there are 24 parts to this one - lots of specialty stitches I have never done before - should be fun!

another new start will be this Blackbird designs chart - Blessings and Kind Wishes - am waiting on fabric and threads to arrive -

Thankyou for all your comments I love reading them and I also enjoy reading everyones blogs - even though the unfortunate side effect is a longer wish list  - enjoy the rest of your weekend!
