Rose Pixie - Close to finish line

No complaints but these days, I am able to do stitching only on weekends. So the last two days I was working on her hair, wings and legs. God, I have confetti stitching....so many threads to change, and absolutely hate it if Mr Frog visits.  Thank goodness, her hair is done. Now only her hands and face is pending and they she will ready for her final finishes with back stitching and beads.

So here is it.......she still needs to get her glitters. :)

Rose Pixie - Getting her wings

Finally after working on her dress for two weekends, her dress is almost ready with her beads pendings. Now she is slowly getting her wings. Can't wait to get her along soon.

So here she is with her dress and blouse almost done.

Rose - pixie - Getting her dress ready

After taking up a new job in finance, I hardly get time to do household chores (Well trying to get some lame excuse for my laziness). Now I am able to do stitching only on weekends. So this weekend, I have done some more progress on her dress. Seems to be a bit of challenge to do her pink dress though it is lovely especially with pink color variations being so close to each other. Just wanted to get over with her dress before I can move on to her wings, hands, legs and head.

Will be posting a picture of the latest soon. But again most likely my next update will be again on the weekend.

Happy Stitching...... :) 

Curtain raiser for Rose Pixie

It has been a while that I did any cross-stitching. Life has been bit busy but still having fun. Obviously facebook Mirabilia group is truly a inspiration for stitching. Now after seeing couple of finishes on the group forum, I decided let me start a new one. Yes.....was working on Spring Queen for a while but now I shelved it as I felt I need a new one to be hanging in my Family room. And what else could be completed fast enough than a Nora Corbett Pixie.

So yesterday I started on the Rose Pixie. But realized one of the threads - 3860 is missing. So in the near future, I might have to make a trip to Michaels or Joanns for that missing thread. I love doing Pixies, they are pretty and at the same time real fast projects. So here is the Rose Pixie after working for couple of hours since yesterday.

 I am planning to do Holly next. So I guess it is going to take a while before I start again on Spring Queen.

Happy Stitching...... :)

Spring Queen - Moving on slowly

So here is my Spring Queen progress. Have completed most of her yellows below her ribbon. Now moving on to the upper side. Can't seem to visualize her beauty.....I guess it comes out as a suprised once beading is done.

Spring Queen - 8/5/2012

 Off to Joannes to buy some stash for my other Pixies - Rose and Holly. Discount sale going on....Yippie.

Happy Stitching....... :)

Spring Queen - Weekend update

I was working on this queen for the last two weekends. Quite impressive with the progress so far. I have to attribute the speed to stiching with two hands(One on top of the fabric and other at the bottom). Was working on the yellows on the bottom left area.

Spring Queen - Woke up from pause mode :)

It has been couple of weeks that I have done any stitching. Got very busy schedules offlate that I didn't have enought time to stitch but I am happy for what I am doing. Finally got some time this weekend and enjoyed working again on Spring Queen and watching movies. Comparing with the last update of Spring Queen, I am pretty happy with the number of stitches I added to her. Worked on her ribbon and more yellows on the bottom left of her dress.

I forgot to take a picture of my latest update of the Queen, and I have to wait for the week end to have the pic taken.

As a side kick, am planning to get the stash for Holly and Rose so that I can work on it while I am on the go. :)

Happy Stitching........ :)
