Christmas cards part 1

 




These are the first 3 cards i have done this year. I don't know who they are for yet. The Robin card is not yet finished. I underestimated the size of card i would need. I stitched it with some specialist threads which was fun. Its the first time i have used whisper thread.  The Michael Powell snow scene was fun to stitch. I really enjoyed watching it come to life with the backstitch. The snowman card was a card kit that was sent to me from another stitcher. Fraser loves this one and may have claimed it for himself :) I'm off to stitch more now......

New chart from Shinysun :)


This is my new chart from Shinysun which arrived yesterday. Its called 'Attention' and looks just like my cat Gypsy (above). I will be posting an update of daisy soon. I have given myself a target of the end of October to finish daisy. Then i will do my christmas cards before starting this chart. I may have to do little projects in between because i think all those dark colours will drive me nuts!! lol
