With the over 1 skin… I have made a deal with myself that I will stitch one strand of skin and then can do some of her dress each time I stitch Fairy Queen, otherwise I will never get her done I think.
I stitched some more Sleeping Beauty as well. With Mirabilia patterns she has a very specific way of setting out her colours and so once you work out what she is doing where, they become very easy to stitch. I got about 2-3 times the amount of stitching done on Sleeping Beauty as I did on Fairy Queen because of this…
And just for fun, while I am waiting for them to arrive, some of the colours I am getting from Enchanted fabrics
I will post real photos when they arrive in 6 weeks-2months time 😀
Queen of fairies..

I have done about 50 stitches on my Bramble and the Rose – 25ct 1 over 1 with HDF Bewrayed and bewined.
A little bit more on my winter queen – I am going to be so SICK of white by the time I am done I think!!!
And another 500 stitches or so on Sleeping Beauty.
Before:
Also I have been picking this up on and off since last tme I stitched her – Fairy Queen – sorry about the shadows.
Do you ever restart???

I am thinking of restarting my version of Mirabella – Bluebeard’s Princess by Mirabilia as I have realised I have to unpick about 3-4 hours of stitching… and the thought of that is just annoying me. Plus I am not sold on the fabric I am stitching her on. She will be very pretty when she is done… one day… but I did also notice that I ordered one of the wrong packs of beads for her – so that will have to be replaced 😦
I have done a little bit on The Queen of Fairies wings again, but I need to take the pattern down to be photocopied again as they missed a bit of the wing and I HATE working straight from the pattern as it is HUGE!
And I have done about 500 stitches on Winter Queen. I think I will be sick of blues and whites by the time I am finished with her… But she is so pretty. I have only got a little bit done of her in the whole scheme of things.
Tomorrow I will pull out Sleeping Beauty I believe. She needs some more stitches added so I can get her finished this year.
And starting Monday I think I will take a break from stitching a person for a while and do something else. Or I could always pull out the wool and start knitting the lap rug that I keep intending to make. I think this will make a really nice toasty rug:
A bit of stitching finally
