More Projects

Moving right along to the next of my finishes:

Halloween Hilda
Mill Hill Kit
c. 2001
8/5/2011 - 8/9/2011




Nutcracker
The Stitchworks
c.2008
8/27/2011 - 9/29/2011


The Nutcracker was so much fun to stitch!! I couldn't decide what project to take on our Baltic Sea cruise, and then remembered this one. Since we would be in St. Petersburg, Russia for 2 days, and The Nutcracker ballet premiered there in 1892, I thought it would be perfect. Eventually, I want to make a stand-up figure with it.



Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow
Barbara Jackson
Cross Stitch Sampler Magazine Summer 1992
c. 1992
5/16/2011 - 10/3/2011

I haven't had a lot of time for blogging lately but I did want to tell you that I've enjoyed the pics of all your stitching. Your canvaswork finish is amazing! I love it.
Merry Christmas to you and your family!
