Lots of Loops

So very much detached chain stitch on this. But it works. Photo is truly awful, though.

 

Blue Jay Birdie

Time to make this into a little ornament.

 

Dillo-ed

Armadillo is ready to find a home.

 

Got Hearts

Hearts are in place and it's about time to do the background.

 

Two Full Flowers

Progressing along - one more flower, the largest, done. One more to go.

 

Backstitching Made the Piece

Until I did the backstitching, this looked like a bunch of blobs. Now it looks like a street. And it's  done. Yay!

 

Still on the Top Post

This is one of those pieces I take with me when I think I might have time to stitch. I usually don't have the time, but at least I'm prepared. And sometimes I -do- have the time. Which is why this piece is progressing.

 

HIJK

Four more letters almost done, and beginning the vines down the sides.

 

Messy Legs

The blue frog's legs look so messy at this point in my stitching. They look all tangled up.

 

Little Birdling

The blue jay looks like a blue jay now and just needs a little bit more to be done.

 

Second Flowered

Two flowers done - this is progressing quickly now. Only one more flower and then a couple of leaves and it's done.

 

Top of the Cross

I've had this kit for about 30 years, and it's about time I worked it. So here it is. 

 

Getting More Green and Black

Put in some more leaves this time and a bit of chest. Starting on the arms soon.

 

So Much Orange

All the middles of the little medallions need to be filled in, but this is getting close to being done.

 

DEFG

Working on the alphabet and doing all the special stitches around it. I think this will be pretty when finished, even though the alphabet fades into the background.

 

Two Bells

At this point, it's pretty obvious why these flowers are called bluebells. One and a half to go.

 

Ready for the Background

All done but the background now. That's the quick part.

 

Make Stuff May 2025 #17: Zingouigoui Delight by Riolis

I am embarrassingly far behind on posting. This year with Andreas away has been super busy and a bit occupied. This is a biscornu with tiny! stitches. 

 

Down to the Last Flower

Last flower started. Then a couple of blades of grass and another finish.

 

Looking Cute

No backstitching yet, but the red panda is beginning to look truly cute.
