Weekend of stitching

Hello there!

What a lovely weekend of stitching I had.  I got the biscobud for a birthday present finished and lots done on my Fairy Grandmother by Lavender and Lace.  Delighted with myself.

Lovely red and green and metallic red hearts biscobud


Birthday Biscobud

I feel like I have made fantastic progress on Fairy Grandmother.  She looks yummy!  I have done quite a bit on her face but the stitches are teeny tiny and I can do about an hour at a time.  The detail is brilliant and i am glad I decided to stitch her face 1 over 1 on the 32 count rather than 2 over 2 with backstitch.  The time and eye strain will be well worth it lol :-)

Fairy Grandmother at the end of 22nd October

Now to stitch a biscornu that a friend has ask for .... Think I could make a business out of the ornies I make lol

Happy stitching and crafting all.

Giveaway for blogoversary coming ASAP :-)

Love me xxxxxx

  2. Wow, 1 over 1 on 32 count!? No wonder you can only stitch for an hour at a time. Fairy Grandmother looks wonderful! The biscobud/biscornu is great! I should try to make one some day.

  5. Fairy Grandmother is lovely. You're brave to do over 1 on 32 count, but the detail will be all worth it. Love the biscobud too!

  7. That biscobud is really cool. I have not seen one done like that.
    I stitched Fairy Grandmother for my granddaughter when she was 3. I loved every stitch. She still hangs in my GD's bedroom.
    Beautiful stitching.
