A new start! As an avid fantasybook reader this one couldn’t stay on my stitchlist. Then the perfect fabric came along and here we are 🥰

Pattern: Here there be dragons by @sproutinglupine
Fabric: 14-count hand dyed Aida Rainbow 011 by Eva’s design on Etsy
Threads: called for DMC but there may be some substitutions along the way, thinking gold metallic, because well dragons!🐉

Finished my fox stitch for the #fallforfoxessal organised by @wildfoxstitchery and @forestcronecrafts

That backstitch made so much difference and really makes the piece. Swipe to see the before picture!🦊

And then just like that it’s done ✅ What a joyous stitch along this was! The wonderful pattern, fabric, the colors, it all came together perfectly. So so happy with the end result.🍄

Dithered a bit about the clouds and the ghosts, didn’t know which to choose and then @sandersstitchiness came up with the perfect combo solution to my problem. So started to stitch it and now it’s done. I’m going to miss the snaily surprises in my mailbox 🐌 Thank you @thestitchcrypt for such an amazing SAL.🥰

Two artists this month, so twice the amount of stitching to be done and the Klimt part was a struggle. It took forever to stitch these paintings..

Again cheered on by @bylliee_stitches and @kats.cross.stitches who are in this seemingly never ending stitch with me 😆

Can anyone remember this one? Last time I worked on it was eight months ago. Still love the image but the pattern is so difficult to work from I had to take a break from it to figure out what to do…There’s no complete pattern page 😕 just loose parts so I have to use the cover picture to make it come together 😬

As the colors are getting darker now that will not be possible any more. So I have decided to finish this swirl and then add the next darker color to some fishes and then call it a finish, stay tuned!🐟🐟🐟

The fourth flower basket in memory of my mother is done. A special month as it’s her birth month, mine and of my son. First birthdays without her. It was really comforting stitching on this when I missed her the most!😢

I’m a bit late to this SALparty organised by @wildfoxstitchery and @forestcronecrafts but couldn’t resist after seeing this abstract fox pattern. Thought it looked really different!🦊

And that’s a wrap for my antsy watermelon stitch! It was such a fun and easy project, perfect for taking with me on vacation.🏖️ I did change the french knots to backstitch in the strawberries because I liked the stripey look more.🍉🍓🍒🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜
