Marabout Rouge Angel

I found the pattern to this cute winged cupid online and

just had to stitch it. I don't think I'm done with it however,

I think I need to stitch it in more colors than just the pink.

Not sure how to finish this one, but it's too cute not to finish.

Stitched on evenweave with a variegated DMC. Check out how

Maureen finished hers.

  

And here is the chart I used.

Here is the blue version (05/03/2013)

Here's the red version (06/23/2013)

 

Here is the lavender version (06/29/2013)

Coming soon the green and mauve versions.

Small Finishes

 

Silk Berries

by Schoolroom Samplings

It's a little chart that came with silk floss that was a joy to stitch.

I found some 28ct linen that was perfect for it.

I have to admit that I started this before October 2011 and put it down.

Didn't take much to finish it.

This is a Little House Ornament Design that I sort of went wild with.

The purple house design has an error that is killing me and I'll have to fix that.

 

Peacock Bird

Ewe & Eye & Friends

I fell in love with this design recently when going thru my EEF notebook.

I have cousins in AZ named Peacock and they will each get a

Peacock Bird Ornament this year.

The other is a needlecase for me to keep my pins in.
