Rose Celebration framed

Here she is, nice simple frame. I had her done at Michaels. The whole thing was about 115$

Biondina Update

I'm loving the skin tones and beautiful blending on this pattern. I'm only doing a detail of the full pattern, so I'm not sure when she'll be "done". This is about 5 1/2 pages.

Mirabilia Rose Celebration Happy Dance!!

She was such a delight to stitch. I stitched her on 28 count blue Jobelan. I've also included some closeups so you can see all the beautiful beadwork. Gorgeous!

More tenting on Biondina

So I continue the experiment with tenting on 25 count. It took some getting used to, but I like it! I'm not sure how much faster it really is when there are so many color changes, but I could definitely see it being faster for background work.

She's been a lot of fun to stitch, this is about 3 pages :)

Rose Celebration~Mirabilia

Well, I took a break from my GK Fruit, to work on my current Mira. Things have gotten so hectic this week, and Miras are so relaxing to stitch. I love my GK's but they definitely take more concentration :)
Rosey is almost done, just the bottom of her skirt, then some detail work, branches and such. I don't know if the photo shows it well, but this piece has a LOT of beading - and it's gorgeous!!!

IHSW Update

I got 3 more pages done in the last 2 weeks(so not just this past weekend). Four more and I will be at the halfway point :)

I expect my stitching speed to slow down as the new school year starts and we get muuuuuch busier.

Still Life Update August

So I'm officially 1/3 done, since I have finished 14 pages. I'm really enjoying the bright colors, they really pop against the dark background!
