:applesauce: :applesauce: that is lovely, Jo! Such pretty colors. Once I finish the last of the cards I am making, I want to get back to the last 3 months of this one. I have so many ideas now for colors seeing everybody's work.
Can't wait to see how you finish these off!

Mine aren't in a binder. I got a big expandable file folder for my Hardanger patterns (all from FoF) especially since I see more of these in my future stitching. Especially since I will finally get to that afghan I wanted to when I first saw Mabel's designs.

I also wanted to say thanks Mabel! I haven't started my SAL yet, but I am looking forward to getting to it sometime in the new year. I hope to have it done by the 2015 SAL! :)

Mabel binders -- I am flattered :-)!

Jo, that's lovely - your greens work beautifully with each and every month. Nice even distribution on the beaded square filets!

Heidi Sally and Jo - beautiful work and gorgeous colours :D !

I too have a Mabel file :lol:

Here is my December. I love the dragonflies, the bullrushes and the beaded squares. I am in the process of doing an antique hem and may put a motif or two in the centre of the mat and will post a pic when it is all done.

Thank you Mabel - I have really enjoyed stitching this - I don't think I would ever have got to grips with hardanger without your very clear diagrams and instructions. :D :wub:

Thanks for the compliment, Mags, and I'm glad you enjoyed trying out a new technique!

Can I ask what beads you used? They're a lovely warm colour, like brandy :-)

Here is my Finale!!! Wow! Mabel certainly knows how to go out with a Flourish!! :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:


I found some blue bugle beads lurking in my bead box and thought that they would suit the Dragonflies bodies quite well.

What a year this has been! :D :D

I shall spend some time putting all my samples together and will post them up sometime in the Spring.
