No. 13 Silk Shading Goldfinch
This was my project for my weekly term time embroidery class - finished and framed!
No.4
This has been ripped out as it was so full of errors! I have started a new beaded shawl instead.

No. 6 Embroidered
This is now a mermaid :) as I have finished my Goldfinch I need a project for embroidery class, I am going to finish this cross stitch I started in about 2009 (!) with freestyle embroidery. I will do a separate post on it soon.
No. 15 Down the Rabbit Hole
I am still slowly appliquéing the leaves, I am behind but I don't care, I am enjoying the stitching
As I mentioned at the start I am busy at work at the moment, apart from my weekly embroidery class, my free time is in the evenings when the light is not so good for stitching. I have been knitting a lot, I joined in the Joji Locatelli Mystery wrap, it's lots of fun, I am using these yarns, a gorgeous mixture of fine wools and silks.

Love seeing all your projects. Very nice!
ReplyDeletelove your projects they are all looking great
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing your free-embroidery embellished Mermaid!
ReplyDeleteYour goldfinch looks wonderful The eyes are particularly nice. The rust color adds just the right touch. Every time I see the center of the "Down the Rabbit Hole" quilt I sigh deeply. Would love to sew along with you but I am determined to finish the project I working on before I start something new.
ReplyDeleteSmall steps are better than none. Great job!
ReplyDeleteYour Goldfinch embroidery is beautiful! Night time isn't conducive to stitching, is it. Love the colours of the yarn in your Mystery Wrap.
ReplyDeleteOhhh so many beautiful projects here Elaine, your wee bird is a wee treasure and so glad he is framed and now safe for years to come. Your mermaid is going to be so so special. Do love your down the rabbit hole colours and you are right just enjoy it. Cheers Glenda
ReplyDeleteI agree that any progress is good progress. The yarns you've selected for the newest knit along are very pretty, some of my favorite colors.
