I have a cute little finish to share with you all today for my WIPocalypse entry.
It's the March cottage from Country Cottage Needleworks series for 2012.
It has been so fun for me to stitch these pastel colours. So different from my usual stuff which is a nice change I must say. They are also not a hard count or stitch so it's a great piece to work on when I'm not feeling as ambitious as usual. Here be March:
So that means the first row is complete. It looks like this so far:
I've also been working on some Kumihimo bracelets. Here's a picture of my favourite one so far (sorry the pic is bad):
I'm considering opening an Etsy store that will have some of my pieces available. I really do make more than I can complete, or give away each year. So I thought maybe it would be nice to share it with the community (if anyone is interested) and post them for sale at a rate that is only slightly more than materials cost. Not looking to make money on this stuff, just to share it with people (but keep me from being bankrupt in supplies costs, lol).
On that note... I'm going to give away a few braid Kumihimo bracelets later this week. So stay tuned to enter!I'll also have an update on the baby sampler and I'm sooo close to a page finish on Dragons, maybe even by the end of the week (if I'm lucky) I'll have that for you all to see.
Thank you so much for all your beautiful comments on my last few posts. You're all so fantastic! I really do appreciate the support and appreciation we all share for the crafting/stitching community.
Hope your week is starting out well and continues to progress that way.
