Raffle 2012 finished

The beads arrived, so I could finish this lovely small Chatelaine mandala garden. Because I didn't have enough leftovers of the Dinky Dyes 'nashi' to stitch all the bricks in the wall I used DMC 733 for them.

Today is Cleo's birthday. She is 18 years old now!

Raffle 2012 update

All the stitching of Chatelaine's Raffle 2012 garden is done! Now I have to wait till the postman brings me the bead pack I ordered from ECC. This package also includes the fabric and beads for the Hortus Viridarium. The threads are already waiting in a box. I wonder how long I can resist another new start ;o)

Welcome to all my new followers!
Thank you all for your visits and lovely comments.

Raffle 2012

Although I have plenty of unfinished Chatelaine projects (and also loads of others) I just couldn't resist a new start.

This is the consolidation prize of Chatelaine's May 2012 Raffle, 'a lovely garden with flowering roses, a brick wall covered with moss and fern and a beautiful lacy scrolled iron ourside' as the description says.
