I finally finished my Poppies Biscornu. I rather like the way it came out. It doesn't have a poppy button in the center yet. I'll make that the next time I take out the polymer clay.
As I predicted, I didn't love stitching with the DMC metallic. It wasn't awful but I wouldn't call it fun either.

I still need to massage around the fiberfill to even out the corners a bit. But, otherwise, it's a finish!
Now - the big dilemma. Do I really have to wait until next month to start August Peridot Fairy since I designated August as a finish month? She is absolutely gorgeous and I want to stitch her even more than Dressmaker's Daughter (which has a lot more sparkle). Of course, I still have to finish lacing my dragonfly and finish the cording for my Boo Club banner - but when it comes to actual stitching...
Here's August Peridot Fairy from Mirabilia Designs if you haven't seen it yet.

I hope everyone is enjoying their back-to-school preparations.
Happy Stitching!
