Bouquet for Cheryl & New Start

I have been a bit slow with my stitching in these past weeks.



I have made a little progress on my Bouquet of
Cheryl SAL and happy to go ahead with the colors.
It's going to be beautiful!

Next up is a new start.


Angel of Hope from M Design taken from
Just Cross Stitching Christmas Ornaments Issue 2009.


To save my time to buy all those floss colors that I don't have,
I always substitute similar floss colors or replace with another color.
This chart is quite easy, I hope I can stitching up quickly so
I can start stitching another chart from the magazine.

Look at all these hand dyed threads
and fabrics I bought from Nina,


the colors are so vivid and beautiful.
Aren't they beautiful?

The renovations and improvements work for
the backyard patio has been done on February.


I love to spend 10 to 15 minutes here after sending my
eldest daughter to kindergarten almost every morning.
Nothing better than taking a sip of my favorite coffee and
settling down with a stitching magazine before I start my work.
Sometimes my daughters loves to have their meal here,
and also the place where our guests enjoy the wine.


Two wooden bird crafts hanging from the beam of patio cover.

Happy stitching everyone. And thanks for popping in and as
always I appreciate all your comments. And also thanks for
sharing all your awesome works!
