Turtle

No time to blog, so all I have to share is the close-up of this tiny crocheted turtle.
I forgot to add it to this post.

Australia sampler

Years ago my mother started this Australia sampler for my father. She got a poor eyesight over the years, so now I’m going to finish it for my parents. I share an update from time to time to keep me going.

I finished this floral part on the sampler. There are 5 more items to stitch.
And this is how my sampler looks now.

It’s a Teesha Rainbow - BLUE

I participated in a series of swaps for Teesha Moore inspired patches with a rainbow colour. This was my last swap for this series. I sent these patches to Paula. It's a pity they didn’t arrive!
My first set of patches for Paula.
A Dutch patch with beads.
A patch with a crocheted turtle and feather stitch.
A closer look at the crocheted turtle.
So I made a new set for her, I’m glad they arrived safely.
My second set of patches for Paula.
An embroidered patch with bullion knots,
sheaf stitch and herringbone stitch.
A patch with buttons and cross stitches.

Australia sampler

Years ago my mother started this Australia sampler for my father. She got a poor eyesight over the years, so now I’m going to finish it for my parents. I share an update from time to time to keep me going. Yesterday I finally finished these rocks.
And this is how my sampler looks now.
