Here is Noah's card! I want to make a few changes to the design, but on the whole I'm really pleased with how it came out

Card has been delivered and appreciated

Now I'm working with my tweaked design, stitching it in two sizes and experimenting with ways of stitching the cloud. This is the start of the small version with the cloud in fluffy stem stitch:

I like the fluffy cloud. Clouds should be fluffy I think!
What thread is that?

[Mabel Figworthy]

Rainbow Gallery (how appropriate ) Wisper. I used it on some of the Hope designs too. They also do a thicker version called Angora.

I like the fluffy cloud. Clouds should be fluffy I think!

I agree and the thread choice is perfect!

I love your Noah's ark card design beautiful...

[Mabel Figworthy]

Third and last Noah's Ark before I start writing the instructions - finished except that i want to stitch a name in the cloud in this version, and I'd like it to be a girl's name. At the moment I'm between "Jill" (Noah's gran, our friend) and "Katie" (Evelyn's gran, also our friend, whose name consists of nice straight letters!)

It's looking really fabulous Mabel.

Remember the birthday card I did for Clara who had her 9th birthday during the second lockdown? Well, her brother will soon have his 7th birthday during this third lockdown, so their mum has asked people to send him birthday cards as well. He likes dinosaurs, which are so very much not my thing, but fortunately also sea creatures, so:

Meet Septimus the Septopus!

Well, for now he is just a design, but I'm hoping to stitch him with lots of textured threads . The 7 in bubbles is going to be either beads or sequins, I haven't decided yet.
