Done ...

Tea Cup Sampler

This is what I have done for Vero's RR. At first I don't like this tea cup and I though I choose a wrong one to stitch. After finish stitching, the color is so light and not cheerful at all. I feel boring. But no choice … I have to finish it … I start back stitch the cup and outer edge of the plate … I get excited. The piece turn out alive ... I mean .. look more real .... *wink. Then I can’t wait to finish the backstitch for the leaves and lastly the vines … After everything is done … I was so happy.. happy .. happy .. Not believe me .. then have a look … but I guess the real piece look more beautiful compare to pic.

Floss Tag

Secondly, I want to show my first try on Floss Tag. I saw a lot of stitcher making floss tag. So I decided to try out one. It’s fun, easy to make and finish very fast. I finished it with my way because I couldn’t find eyelet tool and puncher here. Anyway, the result is not so bad … :)

Now .. I have to start stitch my Rose Sampler for part 10, 11 & 12 while waiting Vero to send Paul's RR to me.

Till then, have a nice weekend everyone. Don't forget to come back and visit me.

Oooh... that's pretty. I know exactly what you mean. To see a design come alive with the backstitches is amazing. I love it. Thanx for stitching on yet another RR of mine, Lene.

You're welcome Vero. Actually I almost give up to stitch it you know ... lol. You're clever to choose the chart without any backstiting and of course the roses will look beautiful itself without any backstitch.
