First Saturday of August means that I'd like to post about a topic chosen by our stitching friends. This SAL is run by Jo from Serendipitous Stitching, it's about what you want to see on the blog.
This month's topic is : Fairies
First came this cross stitched pattern from a spanish stitching magazine las Labores de Ana (a gift from Sheryl).
This darling was made in felt during a half-day DIY course in a shop which has unfortunately since closed.
I will end this post with a new project I could call "sea fairies"
Looking on the net for DIY stitching, sewing...
for my Tour de France 2023 on seas, ocean and rivers
I found a picture of lovely small characters made with carded wool
I had some in my stash I bought after DD3 learned about it during an autumn primary school class in the countryside
I needed some big shells and Cabourg's beach has been
generous with me
The project is to make a small character with a wood head
hair and body in wool and maybe a hat
I'll add some metallic threads, glitter, pearl, sequins,
charms or small shells.
Here are my three WIP
