Yesterday morning saw the last of the back stitch on the snails, so another UFO/WIP crossed off the list.
Mind you, I didn't have to look far for inspiration. Along with the rain , came teams of snails to overpower my garden. The yellow broom was full of them.
Need a few closer looks?
And here is the nicer version .
This was originally going to be made into a bag , but my son has requested a stand up frame ,so got to go hunting for one to fit now.
My daughter asked for a flamingo to start with, but she has changed her mind so often , I lost track of what I was supposed to be stitching for her . Now the snails are finished , she has asked for a tiger , and what do you know? Look what else was in the black hole of started and abandondness.
So , this will be getting some work done on it very soon, though she is still asking for a bag (at the moment) .
So ,a finish means a new start , right ?
Here is Pink Owl on a Branch by Cherry Hill Stitchery. Started 28th May and finished 29th May . Stitched with the recommended DMC threads on 16 count aida .
A little flower detail .
I loved stitching this , and can see it in so many different colours , so expect to see much more of this little owl ,lol .
Thanks for dropping by ,
Cath
