Pond Scum

I finally finished part 2 of Chinese Garden. Once I figured out how to do the reverse of the modified jessica petals it went pretty quickly. The title of the post refers to the name of the SNC perle that I had waited several weeks for it to come in. So I went back to part 1 and put in the fronds in the pond. I put in the delicas but I'm waiting to do the larger beads at the end.




Here is a close up of the corner. They really did turn out nicely.



As I haven't received my kit for Deep Blue Sea I suppose I'll continue on with this one and I'll start part 3 tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by.

TUSAL today

That's right. Today is the next installment of the TUSAL. Not too much to show, but I have been working on Chinese Garden some.

I'll try to post an updated picture later this week.

Jessicas!

I had hoped to get part 2 done over the long weekend, but those darn little leaves took me forever. So I am still working on the jessica stitches. Here is where I am now.


Hopefully I can get this part done this week.

I'm still waiting for my kit for Deep Blue Sea to come. I've dyed my material and it's all ready to go. Well, back to stitching. More jessicas to do.

By the way, thanks for all the wonderful comments about my Thirteen Colonies.

WIPocalypse - January 2012

As you can see I have a separate page above for the 2012 WIPocalypse. It has my starting pictures. I'll list my updates here on my main page. So, here is Thirteen Colonies as of today.

I'm getting quite a lot done on the middle square. It is all solid stitching. Once it is done there are just the colony names and the bottom border. I may be switching to Chinese Garden by the weekend though. It is calling to me.

Thanks for stopping by.
