December Stitch and Bitch

We had our December's Stitch and Bitch Saturday the 11th and a good time was had by all. Jan, Sharliena and her daughter Elizabeth came over and we stitched and of course bitched a little. Jan presented both Sharliena and me with a hand-turned scissor holder and a needleminder. Sam, Jan's DH turned the holders himself and its beautiful. The needleminder is blue with a fairy and flower, two of my favorite things. Isn't it nice, Jan put it together herself, such a talented family.
I completed Part 17 of Castles In The Air but I am not happy with the french knot eyes. But I haven't decided if I want to change them yet or not so until I make up my muddled mind here is my newest picture of CITA.
Last but not least I worked on my LHN Wool Scissor Fob. Still don't have my stitching MO JO back but I am working at it to keep my fingers moving. Working on little sections at a time instead of a big A** project seems to be helping and I don't fell to guilty when I grab my Nook to read.

Your project is lovely - you'd never guess the mojo was missing! Since this project has so many beads, consider replacing those Frenchies with tiny, petite black beads. Happy stitching!

My mojo is slowly returning so I shall send some over your way to assist. Leave the eyes for a while and decide what to do when you feel like it. No point in making a decision now and then deciding it was the wrong one a bit further down the line. It is looking lovely Marchann - well done honey xx
