Aw Haych, I do know what you mean, bet yours looked fab (any pics to share? )

Awesome Harlequins! Sooooo cute, and now doing Piglet (more pics please!) Dylan was a good size baby, he is going to love this as a keepsake. Will get some pics up tomorrow of my progress (its coming along slowly, you'll probably get Piglet done before this).

here is the one that Im waaaay excited to start:

And some I have done in the past

Chicks, you need to get them pressed and framed my dear!

Mind you, I can talk - not! I have a fair few I've done for people in the past and one in particular of a unicorn that really needs to be framed, but I finished it ages ago and still haven't framed it yet! I also have cushions fronts I've made and not completed etc!
I will photograph some of my things, but I also knit and have a long list of orders for Sack Boys at the moment...

 

[lilacamy931]

Awesome Jennybugs! I looooovvveee knitting and crochetting, and had to make my sis a sack boy a while back (didnt look as good or as funky as yours though).. I know I know, I really should get them framed, they are wrapped in tissue in a bag Show me more knitted things!!! Will try and find some crochet things have done (the crochet toys are my own patterns which really proud of )

 

[lilacamy931]

Reminder to self must get another updated piccy! And start knitting again!

I'd love to find some fish inspired cross stitch charts, i've considered having a go at designing some myself as I can never find what i;d like.

i've been stitching, knitting etc for years & years, heres a couple of my finishes from this year:

Good to see there are other stitchers on here

I don't have the patience for massive pieces like that... I wish I did though, they're lovely, especially the first one.

I've been doing a fair amount of quick embroidery bits lately, although I haven't finished all of them (I'm doing an A4 sized version of the Dalek war poster from Doctor Who, fairly badly and in completely the wrong colours, and there's a nice song inspired piece that I started, and then gave up because I forgot that filling in a 6x4 area completely isn't fun at all). I did a small 'quote and blackwork' cross stitch last week, but it's probably an inappropriate quote for a jolly family forum. Er... I've been doing toys too, all handsewn due to lack of sewing machine which makes everything so much more fun...

(It's a squid-kitten hybrid... Don't ask...)

I don't have any photos of the two slightly unfinished blue whales, or of the two currently naked poppets.

Latest foray is into jewellery making. Specifically steampunk themed.
