Jelly Bellies Finally Finished

I finally finished my Jelly Bellies pilot from Caela Conn Tyler.  It's a pretty piece, and I hope the recipient likes it, but... the instructions were disorganized and assumptive, and a lot of the fiddly bits were fiddly solely as a "tour de force" of unneeded stitching techniques.  Many things could have given the same effects for far less effort.  Anyway, it's done and I'm happy about that!  It took a three month hiatus during the move.

  3. Lovely finbish Meg - well done on perservering with it. I know what you mean about some stitches or techniques being completely unnecessary - sometimes less is more isn't it? Hugs, Ally xx
