Rose Sampler by EMS

2008 EMS SAL project. org lain dah berzaman  buat. kita baru nak ber crossing
part 1 sudah siap. akan sambung in june.

One Will Never Do --- SIAP!

actually dah siap this project since last week. 

have started new project. 2 actually!
1) EMS Rose Sampler (1 tone skein, hence starting 2 project at the same time. it can be quite boring stitching 1 tone project at one go)
2) Boy on rocking horses (complicated project, full stitches + half stitch + quarter stitch. u name it. silap langkah huduh hasilnya)

will upload the progress of new project soon. as soon as i get back my broadband speed out of Maxis that is.

Update: One will never do

think this one suitable for pillowcase. isn't it?

Sitching kits

its a small design (3 of it). hopefully can finish stitching each of it within a month (lama tuuuuuuuu)
another one is the wedding chart. quite big as the design area is 8" x 14" (using 14 ct aida)
this wedding design will be suitable for gifts. aaaaaaaa... anyone of u is getting married this year??

Update: Bathroom sampler

Musical Comfort

Last night, after much effort i have finished stitching this 'Musical Comfort' design. took me almost a year to finish it as i stitched on and off. even hubby was sarcastically commented how slow i stitched this project.

aaa. ok. next time ah. i'll stitched non-stop lah. no cooking (macam la slalu masak pon. he he). no washing aaaait. :P

have yet to frame the project. my pocket tgh gawat.

my next project

Design: Anchor InterMezzo 'Bathroom'

Fabric: 28ct evenweave

Thread: Anchor Stranded Cotton (25 colours)

in the photo (clockwise): bobbins, Evenweave fabric, 'Bathroom' sampler chart, Anchor threads, bobbin winder, Q-snap

Assisi

just finish stitching this small design. the technique is called 'Assisi' and the design came from CrossStitcher issue 197.
I dont really follow the colour code. just mix n match the available thread in my collection.
the most expensive material here is the metallic frame (from IKEA).

Converstion last night:
Scenario: A grasshopper accidentally trapped itself in our living room.
Ayah:
'Kakak, tolong carikan belalang. nanti dia mati banyak pulak semut kat ruang tamu nih'
Kakak:
'Belalang tu apa?'
Ayah:
'isk.. pegi la ambik dictionary kakak tuh (picture dictionary)... haaa ni belalalang (while ponting at the picture'
Kakak:
'OooOoo. Grasshopper'

:P
