BFF RAL that almost wasn't

 There were low expectations for this online get together as my BFF expected to be dealing with some work travel and might be a bit worn out or the transport might have been delayed.

Things did not pan out quite as expected but we did manage to fit in the get together.

I had a Christmas stitch I thought to use to RAL but I have put it down in a safe place?

So instead Celtic knot work on the dragon project from The World of Cross Stitching 

It has moved on since last share.

CLICK HERE to see how my BFF's RAL has progressed, she did well for the evening given she was not feeling her best. Well married couples share you know.

Christmas Card three

 the set of labels came in three colours

Christmas Card two

 each card is different, either in the ribbon

or the decoration used, stars or dots.

Christmas card one..

 this is the first of the mouse cross stitches. The kit was for gift tags, I have put them onto cards decorated to look like parcels.

They are removable so the recipient can reuse them, either as gift tags or as tree decorations.

A tiny Bob Ross

 inspired Christmas themed landscape. Brr chilly but fun.

More fun with the metallic water colours, I do like the way the mountains came out. And the chilly little trees.

Mind if I try it again, who knows how it will turn out or at the moment what I am going to do with it.

Sunday Stitchings, techno 3

 This week I managed to get set up and using the TV's speakers quicker. we had reduced expectations for being able to hear the music.

Some speakers were easier to hear than other. There was a little less of an echo but it was still there.  Hopefully there will be further progress.

Conveniently BBC1 scheduled Songs of Praise earlier this week, so it started just after Sacrament Meeting ended, so we had our fix of hymn singing.

More pink and a single stitch of brown, a ninja in the cats eyebrow.

Christmas Tree cards part one

 with metallic water colour paints on black.

Christmas trees

I painted these back in October, when I painted the pumpkin.

I had a plan in mind for them becoming Christmas cards. So far that has not happened, one or two things got in the way of my preparations.

So I am not sure when part two will come along.

Happy Christmouse

 with the back stitch done 

all becomes clear .

I did make a small ohps  but I don't think it too obvious or distracting from the feel of the pattern.

This is a cover kit from WOX.

BFF RAL once more

 so for me this time that equalled felting.

Stabby stabby 

Through a template this time, something I saw on a Facebook video.

I think it is working, but I don't expect to be sharing the result for awhile.

I rather enjoyed seeing the progress Roni was making on her RAL this evening. 

Pop on over to my BFF's  blog to see her pretty pretty progress once she posts it that is.

Snowman has a home

 well a frame. It has been waiting a long time to get a frame.  I finished this 13 years ago and like my dragon from my friend it has waited such a long time (and yes it is still the same carpet on the stair, been the best carpet ever)

So at last E.T the Snowman will go on display for Christmas this year, having benefited from the little framing splurge my BFF instigated.
