I wanted to do an update on my W.I.P's. I have a few things on the go now that I have finished the wedding sampler. It turned out beautifully but I gave it away without taking a picture. Lesson 1, photo first before wrapping. I would have liked a record of it. It took far longer to finish off than I expected, so many French knots. That's why I love those Dimensions kits they are so detailed they have great designers.
Opps still not finished my Delphine skirt.
I had some trouble with the waistband but it's nearly finished and I already have fabric for the next.
Knitting next
I've started a small blanket for the chair in the hall. I have already made 2 cushion covers for it but I thought it was lacking something. Photo's to follow of the whole thing once I have finished.
Made so quickly from A stitch in time by Susan Crawford
Well maybe not so quickly but I'm getting there.
The wedding sampler put me in the mood to make one for my own wedding. It was only 7 years ago so no rush. I fell in love with this design in Crossstitcher magazine by Lucie Heaton
It's a simple folksy style but on 28 count. This is a first for me but I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it is (famous last words). I have only just started on this but I'm hoping over the weekend to get some more done in natural light, easier on the eyes.
So that's all for now , I hope to be back with my finished projects soon.
I hope you are enjoying the summer and having some crafty fun outside.
Happy stitching
Tina
