Revelations and Completions
Hello all! I have finally taken the time to post some pics of stuff I have done.
First up, the Jack Russel that I made for Mark:
I was initially thinking of making a custom designed 'dog house' themed frame for this, but I decided against it. That being said, methinks that it turned out pretty good. And it was very well received, which is always a good thing.Next up, Bonnie's Garfield:
The frame for this one was a neat find. There is a discount merchant here called Gordman's, and we occassionaly manage to find neat frames. Also shown in this picture is the gift card to a local coffee shop called The Mill that Bonnie likes to go to. Bonnie is my car pooler and these items were meant as a Christmas gift. Needless to say, these were VERY well received! (The happy pic I took of Bonnie was too blurry from all her hopping around all happy like...)And finally, one for ME!
This is a kit from Dimension that I got because, well let's be honest: you don't see many projects with bicycles on them. And the notion behind it is pretty nice too. ;-)
As for Evangeline... Well... She is still languishing in "To Be Completed" land. But fear not! As soon as I complete one more little project (that I will be using as the centerpiece for a shadow box idea that I have) I will be getting right back to working on her. HONEST!
That is all that I have as far as finished stuff to show off. I do want to leave you all with a sure sign that Spring is deffinately on its way:
You might not be able to see too well, but there are a gaggle of robins in this picture! I took this a couple of weeks ago (has it really been that long ago?!?) and shortly thereafter, things started to -more or less- warm up. AND the sun has been staying out a lot longer each day and the temps have been going up as well. Yippie, yippie, yippie!!! ;-) Can't wait to get the bikes dusted off and go riding again.
And with that, I will sign off and see you all next time. Happy stitchy!

Your stitching is lovely as always. You know, we had a mess of robins here a couple or three weeks ago and now none to be seen!
Hello, I always did like that Jack Russell, he is gorgeous, and looks great framed too!
Glad to see you back!
