Looks great, how long did it take you?

Hi I've just finished this Augusta, Hole 9 (http://s143.photobucket.com/albums/r156/MortalAngels/07%20Cross%20Stitch/?action=view&current=Auguastaframed.jpg) for my in-laws for putting up with us last summer.

That's great Hayley :thumbsup: I'll bet they'll love it :)

thanks hunni :D

Anyone finished anything recently?

Hi Kitt

I've done a cpl things lately

Teachers (http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r156/MortalAngels/07%20Cross%20Stitch/Teachers.jpg) and This (http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r156/MortalAngels/07%20Cross%20Stitch/hardanger.jpg) is what I learned at the meet-up earlier this month.

How is the wolf pic coming along hun? Have you managed to fit any stitching in? How did your exam go?

They both look great Hayley! What was the second one it's gorgeous!

No stitching yet, had to get the revision done! One exam went a little wrong but yesterdays went fine (fingers crossed) thanks for asking :) Now they are all over I can get on with stitching again, hurray!!!

good good :D I hope you get what you need hun :thumbsup:

the 2nd pic is a Hardanger, where you use different stitches, and cut out bits...was a bit scary at first, but it's great fun :D
I used Caron watercolours and Wildflowers from Wimble Bees

I posted these in the Learning Dressmaking thread so not sure if I should delete the post I made there....

I am really pleased with this, as I had put it away for ages as I got frustrated with it, and finally finished it today.

oh wow thats really pretty :D

Why did that make me remember how tired I am :suspect: Lovely cushion! (it is a cushion isn't it, told you I was tired :hihi:)

that's great! well done :D

Yes, a nice squishy, comfortable cushion. Zzzzz! Glad you like it.

Blood was shed and there was a lot of swearing, but the results speak for themselves below:

I'm exhausted now!

Oh wow that is gorgeous :love: No wonder you are exhausted. Well done!!!

That's lurvely, well done :thumbsup:

Spanna2005, what a beautiful garment. Is it for you? For a special occasion?

Thanks for the comments :D

I'm going to wear it tomorrow night at a Summer Ball. I fell in love with the fabric months ago and knew I had to make something fabulous from it. I'm sure all of you crafters out there are hoarding one thing or another, eh?

I only wish I'd made time to make the jewellery too, but can't do everything! :rolleyes:

Well you are certainly going to turn heads in that outfit! Have a wonderful evening tomorrow :)

Finished Porsche (http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r156/MortalAngels/07%20Cross%20Stitch/Porsche.jpg?t=1184663057) I'm doing a suburu now to go with it :thumbsup: thanks for looking

Very cool :cool:
I noticed the Porsche has a personalised number plate, does the cross stitch pattern come with the alphabet too? Also, if you wanted to change the colour of the car, how easy would it be to convert the pattern?

Thank you :D

No I added the letters myself in backstitch.

It would be quite easy to change the colour, you just go for the equivalent shades of the chosen colour :D

Nice car Hayley!

cheers hun, not bad for the price either lol

I've finished them both now, and Hubby framed them, our lil pal is going to be over the moon with them I'm sure :D Porsche & Subaru (http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r156/MortalAngels/07%20Cross%20Stitch/carpics.jpg?t=1186353590)

Thanks for looking :thumbsup:
