The upside was a lot of audiobook listening and a bit of stitching while I was
But I finished the Mill Hill Skull! I would have finished it three days earlier if I'd found the posy button sooner. It went missing in one of my bags and it took me a bit to find. I was actually trying to order a new one when I finally ran across it (in my Freshwater Pearls project bag).
I stitched it on 28ct white lugana rather than the perforated paper that came in the kit. I love the effect with all of the beads, I enjoyed doing it a lot less (haha).
Sugar Skull by Mill Hill, Finished 9 Apr 2018 |
There was definitely more than enough beads and threads for this kit. I'll have to give it away because I don't want to waste (not enough to do it entirely a second time, but probably enough where it won't cost too much).
I started working on Deco Spirits, hopefully the Air block will be my next mini-finish before I move onto something else... or maybe onto the next block. :D

Great finish! These are so cool. I don't think I want to stitch one, that's an awful lot of beads. Glad you found your button and are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteThank you! And yes, the beads were a bit of a bear ;)
DeleteThe sugar skull looks awesome! I love those beaded kits. I do hope that virus will stay away from you now!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :) I keep looking at other beaded kits, but I haven't had anything call enough to make me want to do another one (yet) :)
DeleteIck sorry the virus found you guys. Hopefully it's gone and stays away now. Congrats on your MH finish. I have one on fabric and I think I prefer the perforated paper personally. Yours turned out perfect though.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to blame it on working in a hospital ;) And thank you :)
