Thank you Debby,

The stitching is finished and I am about to put the beads on:

The chart says to use a light cream thread to put all the beads on but I plan to use a plum colour for the plum beads.


I'm already thinking about the next one todo :D

Me too. And having had a fair amount of experience with TW designs, I am awestruck.

Thank you Serinde,

I keep looking at that empty gap on my wall where I intend on mounting these and looking outside at the weather of these dreary winter days, it makes it easy to prefer to pick up my needle:

This afternoon post christmas normality sets in again and we have our last sewing group meeting of the year. As well as taking along some spare Xmas fayre I will take along my two finished faeries to show the members :D

Yes, the weather is conducive to crafting of all sorts. My groups don't meet now until January, so I'm having a restful "in between" sort of week, which is very welcome.

I've hit an issue as I am short of one colour thread hence I cannot finish the wing:

Image

Its on order so: Onward. :D

I have started thinking about new year resolutions: it should be to loose weight but finishing the full set of 6 faeries this year would be easier :thinks:

Sorry for the lack of updates: I am still unable to access the forum from any of my PCs due to the phishing issue and am struggling with using the touch screen on a tablet.

Status of the Autumn farie as of this morning.

Wonderful stitching, as usual.

(PM Alex directly about your difficulties. He might have suggestions, and at least you can be in direct contact.)

Done,

I am delaying starting my 2024 thread until I have PC access to the forum as posting via the tablet is :tantrum:
