Things that make me super happy

Those fibres are gorgeous! I feel scared spinning them, as my spinning skills can easily ruin such a beauty!

Petit Coeur

To entertain myself this year, I decided to bring some reasoning to my stitching starts. So, I came up with Stitching-around-the-world idea. Will try different countries as designers origin or design themes.
First, France - Petit Coeur by Jardin Prive.
Started this only because I needed some rest from my big projects.
Stitched on 32ct. Flax linen by Zweigart with very slippery DMC rayon flosses 1over2.
10-13 January 2020.

Socks

Another 2019 project is finished. Hubby socks.
This was mainly a car project, that’s why it took so long.
10 April 2019 - 7 January 2020
They look kind of wabi-sabi but fit really well.

Hexie flowers

Finally found use for some hexie flowers I made long ago. They were my learning ones while mastering EPPing. Used them to embellish stitching frame for my Chatelaine project. It looks like it’s taking more time to finish than expected, so, definitely need some protection.
