Advancing with the Dreamcatcher - Little Stitches Art

Last Friday I was stitching for the Friday Frolics. As I did last month I decided to use the opportunity to advance with my dreamcatcher. I didn't stitch too much as I had a very hard week but I advance a little bit. So, every little helps.....

Counting Bats not Sheep!

This week for FF I have rediscovered a WIP from 2016 ....Counting Bats by Just Nan.

Now, I love this design and I was stitching it for the 2016 Hallowe'en SAL but somehow I abandoned around May 2016.  I have no idea why as I cannot think of anything that was happening around that time to make me give up on the SAL for that year.

Anyway, it is back for today, hurray!

It would be nice if I could get another band done this weekend, wouldn't it?

Please feel free to come back tomorrow to see how much progress I make today/this evening.

Late again

Hello friends,

here is my update on my Friday stitching. The number generator had chosen the #16 among my WIPs, which is a design by Italian designer Sara Guermani, Stitching & Quilting Party.

Here is the part I stitched, I finished the cloud that I had started before, the three birds and started on the little house

And this is the overall design

Meanwhile I have added some more in that upper right corner and I'm still stitching on this project. It's just too much fun to put it away.

Until next Friday.

More on that slipper hunt.....

Well, some success on finding that slipper for Cinderella - it may not look like much progress but I am pretty pleased with how much more stitching was done - she is one of those very big projects that take a lot of stitching!

 Progress.....

What she will look like one day!

How did you all go with your frolicking last night?

Barbara - The Flashing Scissors (2018 - 2)

Hello Dear Friends,

The last few Fridays I have been working on my oldest project again, and coincidentally I found I hadn't blogged about this one since this time last year.


It is quite hard to hold and stitch with this frame, and I need a magnifying glass a lot of the time. In fact, you can see the magnifying glass got in the way of my photo here:

I've been putting this off because I really wasn't looking forward to stitching all the framework, and even now I am not looking forward to going back and finishing it, as most of this is just half stitches.

I've found it a lot easier to work on since I bought a new magnifying glass and light which I can attach to the frame, although, of course, it does make the frame a bit heavier to hold!

To ensure the borders all met up I started again at the top left, but this time I'm crossing all the stitches!

It will be a long while before it's all finished, but by joining in with Friday Frolics I'm being more motivated to carry on! 

Not sure if I will stitch this tonight, you might well be tired of seeing it now, so I might go and search in the Dreaded Cupboard to see if I have some other old project that needs some TLC!

Happy Stitching All!!!!

Hugs,

Barbara xxx
