A Little Tease

Just a little tease from Parts 22 and 23 of Castles In The Air. The Dragonflies still need their eyes but you can see how pretty they are. Aren't the yellow flowers with their gold centers nice. I will post more as I get the medallions done. I'm sure CITA will be finished over the weekend since I have a few wonderful things I want to start. Oh my so many wonderful things to start and ah well to finish too that are in my WIP/UFO wooden crate.

Happy Stitching All

One step closer to finishing CITA

I have another update for today, it is the top right medallion of CITA beads and all,. You can't see the beads very well in the picture but they do twinkle.

Here is a snap of the cross stitch I did for my nieces, all framed. The girls where very pleased with them. The Navy one got to Kelli on her 25th birthday yesterday, as you can guess she is in the Navy. Chicks Rule went to her older sister Ashlea as a late birthday present. I was very very happy with how they turned out.

Have a great week everyone and Happy Stitching.

Castles in the Air Pt 20

I am once again behind on my Castles in the Air, but will be working on part 20 this weekend and part 21 next week. Well at least until Wednesday when I head for Florida to spend the week with my  brother and his wife Karen. I am taking Pot 4 Dickie with me since CITA is just to big to tote around on the frame. I will only be gone a week but don't have to be back to work until the 31st of May.
 Here is a picture of part 20 so far. I am going to do the floral medallions since I am not crazy about the fantasy choices for parts 20 and 21. The bee hive and the lady on the bench were OK but I just didn't like them for my castle grounds, and after all it is my Queendom.
I am really happy with this SAL and when it is finished it will be breath taking.  I can't wait to see what she has planed for the 4 corners.
Till later stay safe and Happy Stitching.
