Updates on WIPS and new start(s)

Boo!

I have been disappearing~~~ I know!  I have been nursing my tooth so now I can eat my favorite crispy rice again woohoo! My Macbook gone wild the day before yesterday and as a result I had to spent the whole day queuing at Apple store to get it fixed. Not a pleasure experience at all. Despite from that, I think I did a good job with stitching. So here you go, stitching summary of May:

Daenerys by Love Thy Thread


Yes, she is nearly finished, 8 more pages to go. Have no idea why this blog makes her so grey, should be beautiful dreamy baby blue! Hopefully I can get her done in June!

Dunlee Darnum by Tilton Crafts:


Not done much on this recently, I was too busy stitching Daenerys! But hey, I got the owl done. i am not sure I will come back to this piece anytime soon because I found way too many distraction including these new starts:

Sparkle Love Thy Thread: Stitched 2 over 2 on 32 count Belfast in Opal Oberon (Hand dyed fabric by Steph) with hand dyed silks by Thread Pickerz:



And this: Sullenly Sweet by Sheena Pike

Original Art:

My stitching:


Isn't she pretty!!!!!

And more importantly, she has a companion, gifted to me by sweet Crafty Princess: Lithium


 To complete the collection, I also bought:

Ebony

Entrap

Roses are Red
All of these artworks are created by Amazing SHEENA PIKE in her Malevolence Collection. You can visit her artworks here. They are charted by Love Thy Thread Designs and can be purchased here. For those who love tea, she also has a tea and season collection. Here is one of them which I might buy when I have more penny to spend:

Tea in the Moonlight
So that's my stitching results in May! I hope you enjoyed it and leave some comments below which one you want to see most. I will try my best to crack it for ya!

Leave a sparkle wherever you go!

Updates on my current WIP: Magic Fire, Dunlee Darnum and Daenerys, tiny new start Impossibilium and STASH BAN BEGINS

Hi guys

I disapeared for a while, I know. I just really want to take my time and get something worthwhile to present on this blog.

OK, before posting pictures, I just want to announce that I am officially on a strict stash ban for a few months. BAN BAN BAN now sounds like BANG BANG BANG to me LOL. Pain in the *** So many lovely charts coming out from Tilton, Paine Free Crafts, Color Cascade and I am so torn for not  be able to get any of them. I have to squeeze budget for some personal matters. Anyway, meanwhile, I'll try to focus on my current W.I.P, to see whether I'll have another finish for this year.

Picture time:

MAGIC FIRE by Esmira (Paine Free Crafts): 3 pages done

Before

 After

DUNLEE DARNUM by JB Monge (Tilton Crafts): 6 pages done

Before
 After

DAENERYS (Love Thy Thread): 2.5 pages done

Before
 After


I also did a tiny bit new start on Impossiblium by Aimee Steward but so far only two rows of the first page done. Just way too much confetti and colors. Apart from that, my first time stitch on 32 count linen and I hate it. So I put it aside. Shy~~~

Here how it looks





I hope you all enjoy and please leave comments if you like it ~

Lots of love

WIPs Updates/ Updates on 'Magic Fire', 'Dunlee Darnum' and new start 'Daenerys'

Hi folks

You may recognize that this is updates on several stitching projects. I have been working on these projects in a short-time rotation, about 2-3 days each. I set a small goal for each project, such as half a page or just two column each rotation. I realize that this is a new way for me to encourage myself and make me feel like I've done a lot though it does not necessarily look like so Lol.

So here the before and after pic of my current rotation, apart from my SAL and Wipocalypse that will be posted separately.

I. MAGIC FIRE by ESMIRA (Pain Free Craft Designs)


As of 22 January (Page 9 finished)
As of 22 February (page 10 finished)
II. DUNLEE DARNUM by JB MONGE (Tilton Craft Designs)

As of 12 February (Page 1 finished)

As of 20 February (Page 2 finished)
III. NEW START: DAENERYS by ELENA BEREZINA (Love Thy Thread Designs)

Original image (have no idea why the color turns into pastel, it should be grayish blue)

As of 24 February (Page 2 finished)
So I have 4 pages done in total this month for these WIPS. Not a great progress compares to others but is it deserved some applause? LOL

Tell me what you think and which one you love to see more among these 3!

xoxo
