Miss New Year's Eve Fairy is framed!

Here she is, in all her sparkly glory:


This is one of my favorite fairies; the colors and her dress are so pretty, and I love the clock she's holding.

Every time Jill sends an email with a picture, I feel like I'm getting a Christmas present; I even try to scroll down slowly, to savor the "opening"! ;D And I still get to anticipate seeing my Christmas Elf Fairy, Halloween Fairy and Miss Independence Fairy (my patriotic conversion of Halloween Fairy); so much to look forward to!

Judy Odell should be receiving the pieces of "Shelley's Jewelry Box" today; she mentioned that she would like to have the assembly instructions out in time for people to be able to make this as a Christmas gift, so stay tuned to her board and/or blog for further updates.

I decided to skip working on part three of Lizzie*Kate's "Very Scary" until I finish the current model for Karen. I would really like to have it done before the Door County Stitching Retreat, so I can pick out something really awesome to take with me that weekend. I just received the Valdani silks for Rosewood Manor's "Flowers of Rosehall", so that has been tempting me lately... ;)

Stay tuned for more framed fairies; I know I'm on the edge of my (stitchy) seat!

  2. The framing and matting and stitching is gorgeous! I scrolled down to look at all the prior fairies framed and see that Jill is using a different shaped mat opening every time. I wonder how the next 3 will look! I hope you share a pic of all 7 of them on your wall together!

    1. Just left a comment on your blog; I sent an email 9/17, but maybe the address was wrong? LMK. :)
