Kate Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Here is another design (maybe I should start my own member's thread?!): http://bit.ly/d3KpWS Would love it if someone wants to stitch any of the designs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kell Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Like it, Kate. I've spent the evening working on my 2nd ATC - we have an alphabet theme and have to stitch the letter "C". I'm about 2/3rds of the way through that one. The other theme is an Oriental one - I finished stitching that one last night. It's a gorgeous little pond with a koi carp in it and the Japanese character for "Koi". I just have to pop that one onto a bit of card and it'll be done, but I'll do them both at the same time and post pics afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Spent the day cross stitching. Here's an update. I have added a sparkly blending filament to the ribbon in her hair and I will use it in the skirt. http://yfrog.com/jqphoto0058wj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kell Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Finished another subversive sampler of my own design: Stitched on 28-count latte-coloured evenweave in DMC linen flosses (chocolate and caramel shades). You can get the free design from my Kincavel Krosses blog HERE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inver Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I'm afraid I have lost my cross stitchy mojo at the moment not sure why. Think it was because of the pale colour on cream Aida that was putting me off....must try to get back to it again though, as it was a bookmark I started for that project.

Shin Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Gosh, I have really abandoned my cross stitching lately. Still, haven't finished that Bunny sampler... Well, I had more wedding stationery to do and a few jewellery projects as well. And of course, my books to read among other things. So, I think I will get stuck into some stitching after I read my current book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexiepiper Posted May 26, 2010 Author Share Posted May 26, 2010 I finally got around to taking pics of my last few projects and also of my big piece to show you all. These are little magazine kits that I've been doing to have rests from my big piece ~ I absolutely adore the little hedgehog one, I think that's my favourite small piece I've done so far. This is my big geisha piece ~ and the first pic is a photo from around this time last month, and the second is from where I'm up to as of last night ~ I'm really pleased with how it's coming along, although I fear it's going to take me forever to finish it as I'm only about a 1/3 of the way through the first sheet, and there are 4 to do overall!

Kell Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 (edited) Three cards I've just finished for a charity drive (Cancer Research UK): I'm also donating the purple and green butterfly cards I stitched and posted earlier.

Kell Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 If any stitchers would like to stitch a card or two to donate, I'm sure the lass organising this would appreciate it. She's running in the Relay For Life, but also plans to sell stitched cards to raise extra money. If anyone is interested, could you please nip along ot the Cross Stitch Forum and post to tell her you'd like to. She needs them all by the end of June, so it's a very short time frame, but would be extremely grateful for every single card. (I wouldn't normally post a link to another forum, but as it's not a book one and this is for a charitable cause, I'll link just now, but remove the link at the end of June - ta muchly. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 I was just about to ask you how you go about donating stitched items Kell. For a great charity and I would do anything for it. Even did the Race for Life myself in memory of my Daddy. Anyway, I don't have any cards on the go but I will look as see if I have some nice designs for ones. Need to order nice card though. Oh, who is it on CSF? Could you pm me? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kell Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 It's Kute Kitty. If you follow the link I posted it'll take you straight to the right thread (you'll have to join and/or log in first). She'll be so pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kell Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I got the lovliest surprise in the post this morning. Charmagne sent me a beautidul bookmark she'd stitched and a thank you card for the charts I've been sending her (I save all my butterflies and Margaret Sherry's for her when I come across them in magazines because I know how much she loves them).
