Just Nan's Floral 15

I have finally finished some stitching!  Here is Just Nan's Floral Fifteen, but I decided to finish it differently.  It looks like it has little feet.  After I finished it, I thought perhaps I should change it to how it should originally look, but my girls loved it this way.  Don't you just love the pins?  I have also been stitching on Chatelaine Online 28, the German Ostee.  I don't want to show a picture of that one just yet, as I want to wait until I have put all the beads on.

Floral Fifteen

I have been having a really busy time lately with the kids on school holidays.....But have been making sure I get some stitching in. I received Just Nan's Floral Fifteen in the mail yesterday and couldn't help starting it....I am missing one colour out of the kit which is on it's way to me. So, I will fill that in when I get it, probably next week.

There has been nothing on tele of an evening lately (due to holidays), so DH and I have kicked the kids out of the room to watch "Deadwood". I am so addicted to this series. I gave it to DH for Christmas and we finally are getting to watch it now. We were in Deadwood last October, so this is very interesting for us to watch.

Here is an update on Online 28. I only have the beads to do on part one

Scream House



Lookie what I got in the mail today! I am so excited to receive this and can't wait to get started on it. But as most of us know, there are other things that need to be stitched first. I have a few presents to stitch up to take with me on our trip to the USA, so that comes first....


I love "Netty's Party Mix" jelly beans, the black mourning pins and the gorgeous black scissors. Gotta also mention the tiny little pumpkin beads! Soooo cute

Deb's PIF and Liberty Hill




Deb has received my PIF that I did for her....So I can now show what I stitched. It just screams Deb, the colours, the girl, the prettiness of it. It is from Just Nan and is finished into a pinkeep.

I also had to share this with everyone....From Liberty Hill. Just love it (Obsessed with Anything Halloween) and have already ordered it. From Traditional Stitches

Gilded Dragonfly

I have finished Just Nan's(c) Gilded Dragonfly! This was a really fun stitch and I recommend it to anyone who loves Just Nan.....I only received the kit on July 2nd, but had to start it straight away. The scissors I picked to go with the case are Ginghers(c) called Ashley
I also changed the felt for the needles to an antique green that I had. I did think the pink was
too "lolly" for me....You can just see it under the scissor handles. My favourite part is the beautiful gold dragonfly

Dragonfly, Dragonfly!

I received my kit for the Gilded Dragonfly Scissor Purse by Just Nan (c).....I just love the threads in the box (see them tied up in soft green ribbon?), the beautiful gold Dragonfly charm and the Gilt Sylke Twist.....I'm going to enjoy doing this one!









I have been stitching madly on Kathy B's neighbourhood and have not quite finished it yet,but I thought I would show a stitchy update

Queen of The Needle Finished




I am so pleased with how this turned out. Except for one side not seeming to line up quite right (which I noticed on Just Nan's piece aswell). It didn't look like the vase was in the middle, but it could be that the vase is stitched differently to the other side....Of course, there is no picture of that side as it's not my favourite LOL...... The second picture is more accurate of the true colours
