Long time

Long time since my last post. I had the baby back in October 2012. Needless to say I had no time to stitch ever since. But, the stitch-itch is coming back and  I'm trying to stitch again. Here a cute pattern from The Floss Box. It's my first biscornu. 

The family sampler - progress

Here some progress. I did the letter R with a bit more stitches. I'm trying to locate the blog where a got the idea. I'll post it when I find it.

I'm now 8.5 months pregnant and my hands are sore. Not much stitching is getting done.

House finished

Oh my, that house took forever to complete. But it looks good !

Another finished project !

So glad I'm finally done this one.  It's from the French Magazine Création Point de Croix and the design and from Véronique Enginger. I just used a sticky board and mounted it on it. The project is called "Le SAL de La Brodeuse"

A baby is coming...

I'm expecting my son for October 2nd 2012.  I wanted to stitch something that would commemorate his  birth.  I found the pattern in the book : Souvenir d'enfances aux point de croix by Véronique Enginger. It's an amazing book with lots of projects.  This project is stitched on 28 count natural linen.

For my birthday

Got theses amazing flowers from a friend for my birthday! I just had to share.

Poppy x-stitch

A while ago a fell in love with this design from a discontinued French magazine, De Fil en Aiguille.  I've started this while I was recovering from surgery.  The design is part of the series Étude Botanique.  The designer of this pattern is Veronique Enginger.  She is my favourite designer. Here what I've done so far:

Project Finished

Project Finished!  I can't believe it.  I've started this almost 1 year ago.  It was about time.  Don't know yet what I'm join to do with it. Any ideas?  It's a pattern from a discontinued French Magazine, De Fil en Aiguille.  Stitched on 30 count evenweave. (I think)
