Craft & Quilt Fair

Hi, Yesterday I went to the craft and quilt fair that is on in the city until 28th July. It's the only craft fair I have gone to over the year's but Melbourne has 2. I don't go every year but this year I saved up for it as I have the cross stitch bug big time. 

So want did I get:

1st I would like to say all the fabric I got are from Sewitall, they were so nice and helpful that when I got charts I went back to them. A link is on the left.

As soon as I got there I got fabric for a few Heaven and earth charts that I have:

Faces of faery 164 Got 18 Aida off white

World of the sea turtles got 18 Aida Green

QS april fairy got 18 off white (she is now really to stitch as I also have the DMC)

And I've put in a order and paid for 18 Aida swallow opal for my chart Pocket white tiger

So looking around and not in any order of who I got them from this is what I also got charts too

  

All are Mirabilia Designs in this photo

The south seas mermaid and 16 Aida Bottlebrush

Mermaids of the deep blue and 16 Aida Mist forest

Emerald Mermaid and 16 Aida Honeysuckle

The Queen Mermaid and 16 Aida Azalea

Kits are 

The Fairy and the dove

Dawn

Fall Fairy

Woodland Entrantress

Chart's and fabrics as I did not want to use what was with them

Santa with 16 Aida snowflake sparkle

Mom and me butterfly with 16 Aida blue

Lilac fairy with off white 16 Aida sparkle 

And I got a little bit of other stuff that is not cross stitch.

So I think I did very well.

Now I know I told you I was stitching Fairy wish's and I did a little but the pirate was calling my name so I've been stitching page 1 only it's not there yet. I was hoping to show you when I did this post but it's not to be. 

Now I have so much to stitch and so many on the go already I think I will see after I've done page 1 of the pirate as I'm so close. What will it be next, a old one or new......

Happy stitching!!!   

Little Birdie

Hi, I just had to take a break on fairy wishes/Qs Opal Fairy to stitch this little bird that was with a cross stitch mag I got.

Happy stitching!

Angel's And Fairy's

Hi, Well I've had enough of the angel for now. Lots of half stitch and I was getting sick of it. She is looking good I think. I will get back to her soon. Here is a pic so far.

So I've got a new start. It's a heaven and earth that was in The world of cross stitching mag. They call it fairy wishes and I'm going to keep the name. Here is what she will look like. I have just started her so it might be a while till my next post, when I get a page done.

I really have to stop with the new start's and stitch what I have going.

Happy Stitching!!

Blog List

Hi As you can see I've now put all the blog's a love to look at on my blog list. I love seeing what other's are stitching. I even go looking for more. 

I've asked every one on my blog list if this is ok. I think it's nice to let them all know and to ask. If it was me I would like to be asked.

If it's not ok that I have put your blog up here I'm very sorry and I will take your blog off as so as I can.

Happy stitching

Oh Angel

Hi, Thank you for your kind words. I'm happy you like my cross stitch as I love showing what I'm working on, so thank you.

Rose Petal Angel: oh boy... I had to send away for more thread as I've run out. It's what I hate about doing a kit. The thread is custom dyed so I can not go out and get dmc that will fix it. It always happen's to me with most kit's I do. It's a pain let me tell you. So right now I can still stitch her but not the angel's other arm. Most of her is half stitch so the green of the Aida has come though a little but I think she still looks ok. 

I had just stitch the angel's head when my mum saw her and said she will have it when I'm done stitching her. I told her maybe we will see as I might keep her I don't know yet. My mum love's angel's and I have stitch her one a few year's back. I think she will end up with it lol. 

Here is what I've done so far:

 

Happy stitching

Lots Of Photo's

Hi, After doing the Storykeep I sent away for the supplies I need to stitch Qs April Fairy and another one. So while I wait, I started to stitch Mini Pirate again, until I got bored with it. Pic is of page 1, what I have done of it anyway. 

So after getting bored I went thou the stitching kits I have and found Rose Petal Angel and it's what I'm now doing until the nice post man give's me my supplies. Here is a pic of a arm and I'm just starting her face now. She is the last photo, what she will look like only I'm using green Aida. Which I think looks good so far. 

I've also been a bad girl again with the heaven and earth 50% sale so here is what I got:

Dreams Of Atlantis

QS Jeweled Mermaid

QS Peridot

QS Sapphire

QS Pearl

QS Little Bud

Faces Of Faery 164

QS Spring Luna  

What do you think?

Well back to the angel. Happy Stitching
