Rain rain go away...

...rainy morning here. Hot cup of tea needed urgently!

I have finished BBD "Three stockings for February" last week, but I forgot to post them here. Here they are!


I really love stitching & finishing those stockings. Between February ones, I loved especially the birdie one. For the alphabet one I have used a hand dyed thread by me



I am about to start stitching some BBD Halloween stockings too. There are 13 stockings in the booklet, so I think it is better to start stitching some every now and then just to be ready for Oct.31st :)

In the meantime I have started with hand dyeing some threads with Halloween colours and I will use them for my stockings. Just have to think about the fabric!

Have a nice day you all,

Feeling creative..

...I have hand dyed some threads! I still don't know how I will use them, but I like how they turned out.



The first two skeins from top are called by me "Holiday collection": the first one is Christmas (dark red and green), the second one is Halloween (black, purple, orange).


After hand dyeing, I had the inspiration from three primitive boxes bought this summer in the USA, and I have cut & painted those thread keepers.
Actually, the blue ones are not so light, just blame the camera. Colour is similar to DMC 930, and red ones are similar to DMC 221




Time to come back stitching.
Block II of The Village of Hawk Run Hollow is almost done!

In stitches,
