RIP Debbie - your beautiful spirit and love of cross stitch is never forgotten
This is Nunavut Santa from Mill Hill. I grabhed it because Auntie needed to go to the emergency room and I needed something compact to work on. I ended up taking it on vacation and finishing it in a lovely mountain inn. It was my first attempt at "turkey work " and my second try at beading:
The other finish was also from a kit, this came with Cross Stitcher magazine. I don't know which issue because they've stopped putting dates on magazine pages. The designer is Susan Penny. It's supposed to end up as a needlebook, we'll see if it ever gets that far, haha:
I also got some progress on Era of the Dinosaurs:
And in honor of Debbie I started Candy Feliz Navidad by Ursula Michael. I saw this piece on Debbie's blog and fell in love so I thought it would be a nice way to remember her. The design:
I start in the top left so I started the border and the top candy:
118 days until Christmas!
I'll finish with a picture of Kuna on vacation. I couldn't believe there was still snow on the mountains at the end of August:
