For the past few nights I've stitched on a Valentine piece for my first SBEBB exchange of the year. I'm really happy with how it turned out, would actually like to keep it for myself, ha ha, and I know another of my stitching friends would really like it too :)wink, wink.
I did finish Beach Roses earlier in the week and here it is before I assembly it into a biscornu, so its minus its lovely star fish charm.
Beach Roses by Just Nan, stitched on 32ct platinuim Belfast, DMC threads.
Once again, its been a pleasure to stitch this Just Nan, especially since it used some of my favourite colour turquoise shades.
I'm heading back to the quilting shop this afternoon after work, I can't help myself, I've been dreaming about all those gorgeous fabrics all week, lol!! Before Christmas I was all sewn out and didn't even look at my sewing machine over my holiday break but I'm pleased to say that my sewing mojo is definately back now :)

This JN is going to make a beautiful Bisornu what a great idea finishing it in to one of them... I have yet to get one made!! Bet your Valentine piece is beautiful I'm finishing mine tomorrow ready for my secret partner!

Your JN piece is so beautiful. One of my favourite designers. I love them but have only stitched one. Seeing yours makes me want to start anothery. I love the new "Queen of the Needle".
I also wanted to comment on Evergreen. I have a bunch of BBD charts as it's also a favourite of mine but seeing your Evergreen makes me want to add this to my stash as well. It really is very beautiful.
lol...little did I know it was meant for me :-)) have a nice day!
Beautiful piece you did, Katrina.
