Its been a slow couple of stitching days. Between three days of family dinners (oh weigh in on Tuesday may be scary!) and not quite being in a stitching mood not much has gotten done.
I did do the finishing on the fob I stitched a few days ago. I'm very happy with how it turned out.
Then today I decided to stitch another one! I think its due to working on such a huge project like Paradigm for so many hours at a time that I feel the need to break it up with smaller pieces. I'll do the finishing on this one tomorrow.
Celtic Hearts

Stitched on : 28ct Platinun Lugana

Congratulations on your new finishes, stitched and finished ones. I'm exactly the same when I stitch on one of my large WIPs. I always need to stitch something tiny in between just to get the feeling of finishing something.
ReplyDeleteThe fob is beautifull.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your fob finish, great colour.
ReplyDeleteI agree about working on smaller things during a big WIP too.
Good job on those fobs Dani. Glad you enjoyed your Christmas. Keep plugging at PL. It finishes up so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteBoth fobs are beautiful! I agree...big projects always seem to make me want to do some little things! Although, now I've been stitching little things for so long, I have the desire to get a really big project out soon...hmmmm...
ReplyDeleteThe fob is beautiful. Looking forward to seeing Celtic hearts finished.
ReplyDeleteI like both of your fobs, but that Celtic heart design is really lovely!
ReplyDeleteI too tend to do "littles" in the middle of bigger projects...otherwise I get bored and abandon my stitching altogether.
Great fobs! I like the satisfaction of a quick finish while stitching a large design too.
ReplyDeleteYour finishes are lovely! The red fob is perfect - congrats!
ReplyDeleteI reallllllyyyyy like the Celtic Hearts. Pretty colors. I enjoy the quick finishes in between the larger projects...I call those quick gratifications :0)
ReplyDeleteYour Paradigm Lost is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteOoooooooooo...celtic hearts is beautiful. I love anything Celtic.
ReplyDeleteYour PL is progressing beautifully! Love the little DD scissor fob.
ReplyDeleteThe love fob is gorgeous. Great colours in the celtic one, that'll be a nice one too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pics of Hunter, he looks very soft and cuddly
Nice little finishes, Dani! Big projects are very satisfying, but the little ones are great motivators. :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your scissor fob finish! It's so pretty. I love it!
ReplyDeleteAnd your Celtic Hearts is going to make another pretty fob. I love fobs...only have one, but I'm going to make me a bunch (one day)!
Nice work on the fobs. I love the Celtic Christmas ornie that you did in the previous post. I'm going backwards on that whole weigh in thing myself. I cannot wait to get all of the treats and goodies out of my house.
ReplyDeleteWow, your fob is so pretty! Great job on it! Don't even mention the scales. Eek!

The fob is lovely, congratulations and PL continues to look gorgeous
ReplyDeleteSome super finishes over the past few days. Have a great New Year.
ReplyDeletePL is looking great, looking at your last picture of it you've made nice headway. Your fob is so pretty too, lovely finishing. Celtic Hearts looks wonderful as well, it will make a beautiful fob.

WOW gorgeous, can't wait to see more. Happy New Year hun.
ReplyDeleteHugs xxxx
Look at you go girl. All those cute little fobs and of course PL. Nice!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
I understand the need to have a finish here and there...regardless of how small. I just gotta have breaks here and there while working on big projects. And you inspired me so that I ordered on of the LongDog samplers (I believe that was the name). I haven't done a cross stitch piece in ages but you just sort of brought the project to life for me. I'm going to use a similar thread...I just love the idea of a little more color. Or maybe I'll jazz it up even a bit more with a few different colors. Not sure yet. My mom will bring the pattern with her when she comes in February. Anyway...You inspire many, including me!
ReplyDeleteYour PL is so lovely but I know just how you feel - Im a sucker for the BAPs and then I feel bogged down so I can really relate.
ReplyDeleteThe little ones are so pretty though.
