She's finished...


I have finally finished Mirabilia's Winter Queen.  I cannot believe I put her aside for so many years.  I have the Spring, Summer and Autumn ones as well to do but they will have to wait.




She is more beautiful in real life then she looks in the photo.  The beads took forever but so worth the effort.

Not sure if I'm going to start Mirabilia's Siren and the Shipwreck or Snow Queen next.  They are both calling me to start them.

Happy stitching

Beading the Winter Queen


I have finally finished stitching Mirabilia's Winter Queen and for the last three days I have been adding the beads.  Hopefully it will not be long until I have finished adding the rest of the beads and the back stitching. 



Sorry about the photo it's a bit dark.  

There are so many beads but she will be so beautiful when I have finished adding them.

I have decided to stitch another one of the Mirabilia mermaids when the Winter Queen is finished,   probably  the Siren and the Shipwreck.  I do love Nora's mermaids.

Happy stitching

Christmas Cheer and some blankets.


Another Christmas ornament stitched, added to my pile of stitching waiting to be turned into a finished ornament.  I really must spend some time actually finishing them.

This one is Christmas Cheer by Country Cottage Needleworks.




It was such a fun stitch.




A small amount of stitching on my Winter Queen. I will finish her this year. 

I have made a lot of croched blankets over the past year and a bit, here are a few of them. 




My favourite one is the Canal Boat Rose one.

I'm half way through knitting a blanket, it's made from squares using different knitted stitches.  It's way too hot to knit at the moment so it will have to wait to be finished.

Happy stitching

Fa La La, a bag and an old WIP


Another small finish, this one from Country Cottage Needleworks.




another cute ornament from their ornament collection
Here is a bag I made, it's great for a day out, lots of room for bits and pieces.




and pockets to put things in.




I think this is one of my favourite bags, well until the next bag.  LOL

I have also dug out The Winter Queen.  I started her so many years ago and must finish her.    I do love this design but I think all the blues is why I keep putting her away.  This time I will stitch on her for at east a few hour a week.  I'll keep you updated.
