Christmas stitching

I have been speed stitching for the last week trying to have some progress to show you after not stitching since October and I've actually gotten quite a lot done. Here's where I was last time: And here is what that little Aladdin's lamp turned into: Two reindeer have appeared (and yes, before you say…

Cross Stitch Update

I've made some progress on my Christmas cross stitch. Unfortunately I managed to add two stitches into the middle somehow so its now two stitches wider than my pattern.... I'm honestly not sure how I did that. And it hasn't ruined anything it just means I have to be very aware every time I start…

Cross Stitching along to Christmas

Most of the time that I've spent stitching since the last update has been on a secret project that I can't share yet. But I did managed to completely finish the stitching on it which meant I had time to get a bit done on my main project this week in time to show you…

Cross Stitching Along

It's been three weeks since my last cross stitch update which means another post for the stitchalong. Time just flies sometimes but I did manage to get a lot done since last time. I finished the Gryffindor pin cushion that I shared with you last time. Here it is all finished up. The design is…

Cross Stitch Progress (SAL)

I finally managed to unpick all of the backstitching on my Peter pan quote and can show you a proper picture of the finish. Here it is framed and hooped. I'm pretty proud of the fact I designed that and as always for any patterns I make it's available in my etsy shop as a…

Cross Stitch Update

First off I want to say thanks for all of the advice I got on my last cross stitch update. I've given a few of the ideas a go since then but I have to say it hasn't gone well. I tried back stitching in brown like a couple of you suggested, then green as…

Cross Stitch SAL

I have - kind of - a finish to show you! I've done all the cross stitching that I'd planned to do. So without further ado here it is:  I have two questions now. 1) shall I fill in the words with white stitching to cover up the rather holey looking fabric or leave it…

Cross Stitch SAL update

Hello everyone, it's time for another update on my cross stitching. Last time around I showed you another pin cushion finish but this time it's back to my Peter pan quote. Most of this stitching actually got done before I left for holiday as I've been feeling quite ill since being back. But there is lots…

Another mini finish

I have another small finish to show you all! I'm really quite enjoying having small projects on the go whilst I'm doing a large project, it's great to have some finished along the way. The Ravenclaw pin cushion that I had started for the last update is now done. Here it is fully stitched: I'm…

Cross Stitching On (SAL Update)

Progress is a bit scattered on this one. Lots of chunks of different greens. I've been picking a colour and following it around the pattern so I'm not focusing on one leaf like I was last time. But here's where I was last time and this time with lots more green. You can see about…
