I am very excited that I finished my "Touching the Autumn Sky" Mirabilia cross stitch pattern over the weekend. Whew, took a long time. I can't even remember when I started it. I'm looking for just the right frame now. I have completed two of Mirabilia's patterns in my cross stitching career, the other one is "Under the Friendship Tree". I really like her patterns of children. I have started the letter "C" of her letters series, however I am using Weeks Dye Works flosses instead of Crescent Colors. Looking forward to see how that turns out.
I started a new embroidery pattern for Halloween. It has three ghosts, a witch with her little black cat hiding behind her all in the pumpkin patch on the night of the full moon.
I'm using Gentle Art Sampler flosses and picked up some bright autumn fabrics at the quilting store in town over the weekend. All the characters in this pattern make it fun to stitch, can't wait to get back to it.
This is a little blue chickadee type bird in cross stitch. She's sitting in a tangle of tree branches with blooming pink flowers. I'll make her into a little ornament. I like having little cross stitch ornaments around the house. Adds lots of color here and there.
While I was hunting for autumn fabrics I found some bright cherry red holiday fabrics so I'm hoping they will inspire a new holiday embroidery design. I really liked the red and turquoise colors together.
