Oh yeah, that’s a big woohoo! I stitched the hardanger section today, washed the piece, ironed it, scanned it and have started to cut out the pieces for finishing. Here’s a scan of the finished stitching against a black background so you can see the hardanger more clearly. I have never stitched so many picots before – what a challenge for me! The recipient doesn’t read my blog, so I’m not bothering to block out the name. Hopefully, she won’t stumble across this. 😉
Also, here’s a quick peek at the beaded scissors fob that I put together last night. I didn’t have a lobster clasp and the scissors were inexpensive, so I just wired the beads straight to the scissors.
And now I’m off again. Back upstairs to work on the finishing some more, so I don’t have to do all of it tomorrow. With any luck, I can finish it tonight before I go to bed and then I can spend some time just stitching for the fun of it tomorrow!
Hey Jenna: Excellent Exchange Stitching! Wow. Beautiful.
Luv your beaded fob. i hae to try one soon.
It is hotter than hot & I didn’t get much accomplished today. DH & DS went for pizza b/c nobody wants to cook & everybody wants to eat. Tori has girls nite out & she is looking forward to being with GFs.
Enjoy the week-end. I hope to get something done tomorrow even if it is supposed to be 110 degree heat index. Blek.
