Little House Neighbourhood - Will it be my next WIP

Off late I have been stitching only Mira / Nora projects and no doubt I enjoy them. But recently the wind is blowing towards Little House Neighbourhood. Am thinking whether I should place the order or wait until 4 of them that are in pipeline are complete / close to complete. (Spring Queen, Holly, Rose and Bluebell Pixie).

I will have to hold this off until then I guess. But in case I have to order any more stash from 123 stitch, then LHN might diffently be added to the shopping cart. So tempted get the pattern and fabric home.

BTW, on the Spring Queen updates, the more I wanted to stitch a different color , the more I get into stitching the greens. Now pretty close to completing the solid greens on half of her dress that I can move on to different color. Pictures will be posted soon. The stitches on the Spring Queen are all over the place. I pray that they all aligh together. Hate to frog the work and can't leave the pattern knowing the mistake so obvious.

Hope regular bloggers of my site are enjoying knowing updates from my end.


Happy Sitching......:)

Spring Queen - Tired of stitching the greens

The last three days I have been stitching the greens on the left side of the dress that now I am too tired to do any more green. So for a change I started working on her dress lace with a nice lavender color (which infact is eye pleasing after seeing so much greens the last couple of days).

Now I am wondering how the heck in this world will I be able to do all those yellowish greens on her dress.....Hum......I guess this project is going to be on and off the shelf once I start doing her yellows.....Anyhow, I will post of picture of her once I complete her dress lace.

On a side note, after reading some of the experiences of the stitchers in Mirabilia Facebook group, even I tried to stitch with two hands, left hand on the top and right hand on the bottom of the fabric, and couldn't believe how fast it is. Also by stitching like that, my hands, fingers and back are not getting as sore as they used to be while I was stitching with one hand. Now I don't feel like stitching with one hand. :) 

Happy Stitching.....:)

Spring Queen - update on her dress

Last weekend I was able to do quite a bit of stitching on Spring Queen - Especially left side of her dress and the ribbons. My stitching was all over the place and was literally praying that the ends meet with out the need for frogging.

Luckily, so far it is going good. So here is the update that I have so far.

Spring Queen - working on her ribbon

Got bored doing her face and neck and to top it, I ended frogging all her face. :( So moved on to her dress and was working on her ribbon. Enjoyed working on those satin ribbons.......

Spring Queen - A little more progress

Yesterday and today I did little bit stitching on Spring Queen. Almost done half her face and realized I was off by one row to the left. Huh....can't take chances to cover it up......so will have to frog her face. :(

Here is what I have so far. This pic was taken before I did the neck line and face.
