Birds, Butterflies & Fairies!

The Mystery of the Birds I’ve been working away on the Mystery Chart and the second bird is not looking so mysterious now! Progress on this chart is now at about 53% complete, so just over the halfway mark. Previous Progress: Current Progress:       Butterflies Galore! I'm very excited to share that Freddy Werner is stitching the butterfly chart I made! You can see pictures (posted in the downloads tab with permission) or follow her stitching progress via Instagram. She is considering filling the wings in with variegated thread…  I can't wait to see more of her stitching! I have always loved butterflies.  When Heaven & Earth did requests I asked to have Adolescence by Dahlig charted.  I've had this chart waiting in the wings for some time due to my indecision about fabric and also trying not to have too many projects on the go (which I’ve obviously relaxed about lol!) I do plan to start stitching this (next year) and finally have fabric sort

The Two of Spades Foot & Take Two on Goals!

Two of Spades I have my first page finish on the Queen of Spades Sends Her Regards!  The Two of Spades finally has his foot!  I've started on page 19 which is a partial page at the bottom left hand corner of the chart. Previous Progress: Current Progress: Two Gifts  I had a wonderful Birthday this week and was gifted a gorgeous ball of wool!  I will eventually knit or crotchet it into something!  My sister also made me a cross stitch of my cat Matisse, which is still being finished. I’ll share pictures when it’s done!  Matisse when she was a little kitty (this is the photo being stitched minus the slippers lol!): Take Two on Goals  In light of recent events I’ve decided to change and revise my yearly stitching goals!  They were falling behind due to the Mystery Chart (which I didn’t account for at the start of the year)
