Finished another project

Hi !

I’d like to share another project which was a slow WIP. It’s a long runner which was stitched by me and my mother. My mother had stitched the center part and I did the border around the central panel and the fringes.

                                  

To complete those fringes took a very long time than I’d anticipated because I’d had to count, remove threads and gather them to make a fringe. I’m very happy that I’ve finished it now J.

I guess to fall sick has some advantages too..I’m completing projects rather than starting or planning new ones ..

Have a happy weekend!

Happy stitching!

Doily

Hi !

How are y’all? It’s been quiet sometime since I posted something here… I wasn’t well again, had to undergo some tests and all that’s happening around me is driving me mad. To add to all this misery my laptop crashed L and still there are some problems with the display driver. Enough about my personal stuff, my stitching life was also not so great.

I managed to complete a doily which I had started long time back and totally forgot and crocheted an edging too with the leftover thread.

                                       

                                         

Both the patterns are from an Ondori book.the ruffles in the doily will go off once it's blocked. It feels good when something is completed which was lying there for a longtime, isn’t it? Do you always remember what you’d started,complete it on time or like me start something,forget about that,happily carry on with the other stuff  and feel guilty when  it’s found while cleaning?

Happy stitching!

Embroidered box top

Hi

Hardanger embroidery is one of my favorite techniques. I’d like to have a hardanger WIP always. Indian embroidery is my comfort zone and to try different techniques like crewel, hardanger , whitework is a different experience which I enjoy .

Here is a small project which is no more a WIP, Yay!

                                          

I received this jewel box as a gift from my brother and the supplies from my motherJ.

It feels good when one WIP is crossed from the list even though it’s a small one, isn’t it?

Happy stitching!

Anita.
