Finally updating…

The next month or so I probably won’t be around so much… have things on which will slow down my stitching.

Anyway, this weekend I got some stitching done… and some dyeing but that hasn’t been watched out yet, so no photos :D

Firstly, the event calendar is about 2/3 done – just have to put dividing lines in to make the pockets…. and his name when I have done that.

And close up of the final motifs – I beaded some of these as I am not happy with my French knots…

And Titania.. Gosh she is a lot of pink!! Almost through my first skein of 818…

A floss toss, Titania and silk spools…

Her blanket, scarf or whatever you like to call it is done:

This is my Lindt chocolate box I am slowly filling with silk spools..

A few varigated silks I bought:

And I got my silks for Fairy moon – shown here with the Hand dyed Heaven Hummingbird fabric. I think it will work :D It looks quite pink in this picture:

Titania again!

Leaves are done

I love Mirabilias but the leaves and flowers are my least favourite things about them… I think it is why Sleeping Beauty keeps languishing as a very SLOOOOWWW WiP.

Anyway, the leaves on Titania on the right hand side are all done. I might try to get some of her skirt done tomorrow. The leaves took almost all my stitching time tonight… lots of colour changes. Sigh…

Her ribbons on this side are done… now the leaves…

More on the train…

I went to Melbourne on the train… and sat and stitched for a while.

And to prove it wasn’t just stash enhancing – Titania update:
titania 30.7.10

I have had a really busy week this week, so very little time for stitching :( Next week should be better.

Its now almost 1am and I am wired on coffee… meh!

Pink is starting to look a bit like something…

Here is proof…

I ended up frogging one colour and restitching it as it looked wrong, and when I compared it to another skein labelled the same colour, the second skein was much better I think

The pink blob is growing…

But I had to frog a little :( How annoying!
