Spring Queen - Back in action

With Holly completion, it is now time for Spring Queen to come back to action. This definitely is a beautiful piece and also a very time consuming project....well no complains but all Miras are like that......So here is the Spring Queen before I put it aside to complete Rose Pixie and Holly Pixie.I only hope Mr Frog does NOT visit me while I am working on this beauty. ;)

Spring Queen - Back to action on 10/20/2013

Happy Stitching......

Happy dance for Holly

Yippee......Singing a Happy Dance for Holly - my fourth pixie of Nora Corbett's. It is always a pleasure to see a project coming to an end and feeling proud about self. Finally here she is the beauty that I am talking about......Looking for good framers to get this and Rose pixes framed. Burnt my time, money, excitement and fun framing at Michaels that it is no more an option that I want to consider.

If there any good framers that you would refer (in Bay Area), please drop in a message.

Finally here is Holly all decked up for framing..... :)

 

Final Holly - 10/19/2013

 Most likely I will now move on to Spring Queen (a WIP that is untouched since one year) and then on to Bluebell.....

Happy Stitching......

Holly after 2nd weekend progress

Here is my Holly after almost 2 weeks of effort. She is coming along great. But for some reason, Mr Frog also is so keen on visiting her quite often.I hope he doesn't slow down my Holly progress.

Holly - with one weekend effort

This is my first cut of Holly after a weekend effort in bringing her to life......Mr Frog was visiting so often while doing this project. I hope he had enough of his turns that he will NOT come back again atleast not until I finish this. :)

Happy Dance for "Rose Pixie"

Hurray, I am done with Rose Pixie...... Oo...La....La....La.......My first 2013 finish......Now it waits in the case for its turn for the final makeover (Framing).......

 Happy Stitching......

Rose Pixie - Almost close to finish line

Finally after almost 7 months of putting away my favorite hobby (had some really good times and some were really worst times), got inspiration to pick Rose and make her reach the finish line. So here she is - would have reached the finish line.....if the back-stitch thread didn't run out of stash....... Now I have to shop for a DMC for back-stitching. No wonder, Mira or Nora design look ever beautiful and richly once the beads are added. This is my third Pixie (First being Evening  Primrose and second being Waterlily).

Rose Pixie - As of 7/4/2013

Happy 4th of July and Happy Stitching..... :)
