Santa 2010 and Snowman 2010

Here my first two Lizzie Kate patterns stitched.  I fiinished both as Xmas bags and will be filled with surprise gifts for my boyfriend (in the Santa one he will surely get some socks and underwears as according to the pattern writing I also stitched on the back of the bag  :) )

 

Stitched with the CC threads and the Wisper 88 as by the pattern. 

On 32 count Dark Coffee Zweigart fabric

Don't Laugh!

at my feeble attempt at making a cushion/pillow. Finishing is not my strong point but I did love stitching them.



Both stitched on 28ct Summer Khaki Linen using DMC threads and backed with the fabric in the background.

Thank you for letting me share.

Green Flip Update!

I'm still enjoying stitching this one, I just wish I had more "me" time to devote to it! I finished the Save Water block a couple of days ago and also took a picture of the 3 blocks completed so far!

Thanks for looking!

In All Things....

I just wanted to share w/you part of my T'giving decor. This is from a really old LK pattern, but I still love it, altho' it is actually a little darker than the pic shows. A gal who used to sell her handmade buttons in my shop yrs. ago made the leaf buttons to go w/this design. I think she did a great job on them!

Thanks for letting me share and I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Give Thanks

Hi, I am a new contributing member to this blog, though I have been reading it for ages. All of your work is so inspiring! I finished Give Thanks yesterday morning and finished it into an ornament.

LOVE EWE

A little something for DH as a thank you for treating me to tickets to see Kylie & Take That with Robbie Williams next year!  I think a bottle of of his favourite tipple will probably be more preferable but I've wanted to stitch this cutie for so long this is my excuse for stitching it!!!

Love Keeps Us Warm!

Design: Love Keeps Us Warm

Fabric: 28ct Mushroom EW

Floss is DMC alternates

Started on October 20th

Finished on November 1st

I think this is my FAVORITE LK finish so far! I have a special "fondness" for Snowmen and this was my second LK chart purchase that I have had (just about forever) in my collection and I finally got around to stitching it!

I had the snowflake charms in my stash and felt that the hats were a bit "naked" without something :) I painted the box in a mushroom color to match the fabric and used that awesome Snowman fabric that I got at Fabricland last month! I didn't add a cord trim to the inside of my box as I really wanted the focus to be on the Snowmen.

Thanks for looking!

New Designs! **Edited (again)**

I found these designs listed for sale on the Silver Needle website, link below

http://www.thesilverneedle.net/lizzie-kate.php?Reloaded=True&osCsid=3f500668d4a076ae6b87e551e59f26a7

Not sure why they are already listed there and not on the Lizzie Kate homepage yet?

I had to add this new one too! Isn't this the cutest chart you have ever seen??? You know what I'm gonna be stitchin up soon :) Thanks Linda all 3 designs are awesome!

Everything is good again as I am totally loving both of these designs! That Snowman is taking top priority on my list as soon as I am able to buy the chart :) I'm not sure what to finish it as though, decisions, decisions!

I'll have another finish to share with you all soon it's in the final stages!
