Travel Memories - WIP

[merbs]

Never been to Paris(and probably never will) but this Dimensions kit appealed to me. Plus, I had a coupon for 50% off one item(AC Moore craft store has been giving them out like candy...and I keep going back for more).

This is actually going pretty fast. Most of it is half stitches!

here's what it will(should) look like:

That is lovely, merbs. Have also had a look at your other work on webshots - you have some lovely stuff - I like the willows, very effective together like that.

[Mabel Figworthy]

That's a lovely projects, Merbs, so effective! I loved your peacockt, too, that's a great design. Could you tell me who it is by?

[sammy_v]

Very pretty, coming along great.

[Jilly]

I love this design, I also looked at your webshots, the Deer and the Japanese ones are great

[~threadbear~]

Looking lovely!

[Angel]

Oooh pretty!

Pick me up some coupons?

[Rose]

This is a fantastic project, I have seen it often and admired it. Look forward to following your progress.


I checked out your webshot gallery and I must say there are some pretty impressive pieces in there. The peacock is wonderful.

A beautiful collection of work! They were all excellent.

I must join my friends: this is really a beautiful piece, keep up the good work. And your other works are gorgeous as well! We are always happy to have such talented people among our ranks.

I've seen this one before but not actually stitched so looking forward to your progress!

Paris is beautiful, went once, loved it!

[nicgoss]

This is beautiful Merbs - can't wait to see the progress!

Wish I lived in the US, you get things soooo much cheaper - not fair!

[merbs]

That's a lovely projects, Merbs, so effective! I loved your peacockt, too, that's a great design. Could you tell me who it is by?

That's also by Dimensions, their Gold Petite collection. It's called Beautiful Bird. Can't see in the pics, but the tail has gold thread highlights.

Thanks everyone for the compliments!

Took time out this weekend to stitch this for mom for mother's day. Thinking of putting it in a square trivet that's why I added the extra bee 'trail', but it still looks like it's missing something. Not sure I'll have time to come up with more so I might put it in a coaster. If you've seen this project in Cross Stitcher, there's another mug with the kitty's butt sticking out. Do plan to do that as a coaster.

merbes that kittie is CUTE ! i plan on stitching those too!

[Unfinished]

Merbes I love your main project, the butterfly looks lovely already, can't wait to see this progressing.

I've got the Cross stitcher with the four Kitties in Mugs too, and plan to do them one day - they're just so cute. I like the way you've added the bee trail - good idea

Nice little quickie. I think it looks very nice and a trivet would be great for it.

[Mabel Figworthy]

That Kitty is soooo cute!

[mags]

Oh nice kitty, merbs. I also have the pattern and hope to do it one day.

[nettie]

They say great minds think alike I have also kept the kitty pattern from cross stitcher to do one day. It looks really good.
