Tiny Tidings V - Wish Upon a Flake

This adorable design is found in the Tiny Tidings V chart pack. At first sight it doesn't look all that fantastic.  As you start to stitch it the colors really come through.



 
 The words "wish upon a " are stitched over 1 thread

Instead of stitching the flakes I am using Glass beads #00161
 
and there is the word Flake.  now just to stitch the beads.

Santas Buddies - Angel Stitching JCS09



How adorable is that?  My daughter begged me to stitch it for her.  I had stitched before Christmas, but I only got the time to finish it now.  She wants it to hang in her room

Lady Scarlet's Secret Garden by Just Nan



When Just Nan first released this Limited Edition beauty I knew I had to get one.  The Ladybug is beautifully crafted and I love the idea of the opening on her back.  One side is the Pincushion and  the other is a needle book.  The design was so detailed and fun to do.

Biscornu



My dearest and wonderful friend Suzanne gave me this Biscornu on our Christmas Exchange.  I absolutely adore it.  The hearts change colors as the hand dyed thread is stitched.  She'll have to teach me how to make these gorgeous things.  To see more you can visit her blog:
