So then - what project are you most proud of and why?? Feel free to post pictures on for us all to see!

 

Mine was the Wild Prints cushion - it was only my second design and there are over 50 colours with confetti stitches everywhere! I also did it from a black & white chart which nearly sent me crazy! My fiance loves it too which is a tremendous achievement as any stitched really isn't his thing!!

Hi! 

I think the one project that I'm most proud of is a picture of my cat Bootsie. I couldn't believe how realistic it turned out especially as it's a kit I found and not a photo stitch. There is a picture of it in my gallery in my profile.

I love your designs as they are so bright and colourful!

Hi Lori

 

Have just waded through you gallery - how busy have you been??? Are you a superstitcher! You have some gorgeous pictures, I love your cat - it so cute and very lifelike.  Where do you put them all? That was my problem - obivously I have to keep them now to be photographed for the website but most aren't framed unless I have a show to exhibit at.

 

As you can probably tell from my designs - I do like my colour!! I'm in the middle of a series of large wacky nameplates for children - 1 for a little boy, 1 for a little girl and then a funky one for older girls. They are taking longer than I though but are something completely different.  Customers will be able to customise the lettering and letter pattern so I'm hoping they might get in a magazine - you never know!

Thats fantastic - have always loved Dream Catchers - they have such a magical aura about them!  Well Done - I hope it's in a prime spot??

I have to say that mine is a Safari Jungle Animal afghan I stitched for my toddler.   Finding out you are to be a Mummy again in your early 40's was quite a shock to me as my other Son is nearly 15 but I really enjoyed stitching it and I had just put the last stitch in - when we had to make a dash for the hospital - nearly 2 months early but thankfully everything was fine.

 

Have to say though that its folded into a drawer as its too precious to use!

 

Love Michelle x

Hi the xstitch piece im most proud of is the very first xstitch i did 17yrs ago aprox.
It is called the gathering geese it took me 3mths to complete.
I didn't have a clue how to begin and started in left hand corner there was loads of back stitch
and my husband at that time said i would never do it.Wrong thing to say it made me more determined
from then on i was totally hooked on xstitch.
Iv posted a picture of it on this gallery hope you like it.
