2014 Finishes


Letters from Nora - S by Mirabilia, Finished 6/18/2014
The materials for this piece were gifts from a dear, dear friend, and when I realized I had a chance at getting it framed I worked hard to finish it... For whatever reason, I used sulky thread to attach the beads, and as a total goof, my hot iron melted the line and I lost the beads!  I finished beading this piece on the plane on the way to see my friends.  She's super special to me.

Halloween Fairy is #3 in a 6 part LE Holiday Fairy kit series by Mirabilia/Wichelt.  Finished 7/28/2014
I started her ages ago (after I finished the Christmas, Valentines, and Easter fairies) and just finally got around to knocking her out.    I had lost one of the threads I needed to stitch her dress and had just gotten stuck.  

Miss Witchy Mouse by Just Nan, Finished 9/21/2014
Someone posted an "in search of" for Minerva's Mouse by Nan, so I googled it to find these little mice put out by Just Nan!  OMG!  MICE!   Immediately got the Witchy Mouse and the Gingerbread Mouse.    I emailed Nan to let her know how much I appreciated these little mice and how happy I was that she's still designing, and she immediately replied, which was super nice.   I look forward to more of these little mice.


Miss New Year's Fairy is #5 in a 6 part LE Holiday Fairy kit series by Mirabilia/Wichelt, Finished 10/13/2014
I started  her in 2011... I was at a get-together at a friend's house and was not "feeling" the other projects I'd brought, so I figured I would start her (I had Halloween Fairy with me to work on, actually).

Haunting Love by T. A. Smith designs (free design for the "Pumpkin Seed Stitchers" on FB).  Finished October 15.
Stitched on Sparklies fabric (Purpleberry Spludge?) with Fiesta, Hibiscus, and Black Coffee (and white DMC).
