Looking for that lost slipper....

Today for Friday Frolics I have pulled out a very old WIP/UFO..... my darling Cinderella by Mirabilia.

I just checked back on my old posts on my main blog, Kitten Stitching and if you click here you will see that it has been FIVE YEARS since I last stitched on/posted about her!!!!!!!!!  Oh, my goodness!

So, please check back tomorrow to see how much progress I make.

hugs, 

P.S. I would just like to invite you to take part in my Girl's Nest Giveaway #5, on my main blog, Kitten Stitching, please just click on the pic below to sign up for the item of your choice.  It closes on March 31st.

One of my oldest UFOs

Hello friends,

last Friday my number generator came up with #4 - Old Teddies by Anna Krajewski. I stitched it about 15 years ago but then abandoned it. When I left it back then it looked like that

I thought I could do a little bit of backstitching and stitched all the backstitches in the picture above the big teddy.

I have no idea when it will come out again. But the next will be the backstitching of the basket and the twigs in the basket.

Happy Stitching,
Brigitte

A rather sad Secret Santa....

Hmm! Not a lot of progress on Secret Santa last night.  As I said last post - I had not had the opportunity to touch needle to fabric until well after dinner but here goes anyway...

Before:

Secret Santa

Lavender & Lace

Fabric: 28 ct Dirty Linen (I think)

Suggested Floss (I think)

After:

Here's hoping that you all had more success than I did last night....

hugs,

An oldie barely touched!

This week's Friday Frolic is a very oldie that has barely been started... hopefully I will make some progress on it during tonight's stitching session....

I had better get a wriggle on, hadn't I?

What are you stitching for Friday Frolics or this long weekend here in Melbourne?

P.S. The last time I pulled this out was over a year ago for FF.

Stitching snow in spring

Hello dear friends,

last Friday I didn't have time to stitch so I made it a Saturday Frolics. As usual I let the Random Number Generator choose among my WIPs and it chose Snow Days by Mirabilia. This would never have been my own choice as last week we had the Beast from the East reigning our weather with such low temperatures that going outside wasn't an option. At all. Since Sunday we have spring, finally.

But then I said "let's face it and stitch snow"! Here is where I left back in April 2016

Of course I couldn't put the project down after Saturday in spite of all the snow and extended the Saturday Frolics a bit until yesterday. This is where I am now

I added all the snow on the right hand side downwards. It's not really a lot but I'm a slow stitcher and I'm quite happy with the result.

Next Friday I will come up with a new WIP - whatever my RNG will choose for me.

Happy Stitching!
Brigitte

Happy Dance x 2!

Yay! I had great success with my two kitty cats yesterday for Friday Frolics plus I also made great progress on my Witch's Kitchen, too!

Alphabet Cats by JBW Designs

Witch's Kitchen a freebie by The Primitive Hare

A most successful Friday Frolics, how about you?

hugs, 

I think....

... that it will be another trilogy of stitching again this Friday and maybe, a Happy Dance or two, if I am lucky!

So, I went to my WIP pile and pulled out this box...

.... opened the lid and found this inside ....

JBW Designs Alphabet Cat, personalised to look like Furio ....

... with only the "F", "U", "R" and "O" to go!  This should be a speedy run to that Happy Dance!

Inside I also found the fabric and thread to stitch an Alphabet Milo! So, I figure just like Proverbi 3 last week, that counts as a WIP as well!

 

I am also planning to put some more love into this sweet freebie from The Primitive Hare... "Witch's Kitchen".

So, lots of Frolicking for me today, fingers crossed!

hugs,
