DUCJC 2015 - Day 23

Hello friends!

More Margaret Sherry on more Aida with more fractionals!

This one is so me (and probably most of you out there too!) I'm desperately trying to be good with my eating habits but stitching this has given me an appetite - and not a healthy one!!! But isn't the saying true - when all else fails, there's always chocolate!

A yummy project about a yummy topic on yummy fabric. That's contentment!

DUCJC 2015 - Day 9

Good morning!

Oh dear..... Margaret Sherry on Aida! What was I thinking not buying evenweave for this chart? I can only assume I didn't look closely at the symbols first to see how many fractionals there were i.e. LOADS!

I only managed to stitch the worm (whilst watching Top Gear Burma Special - have you realized yet I really like Top Gear?!) but feel that's quite an achievement for one day. I'm not stitching the background but will probably backstitch the border to give the piece a definitive area.

I'm glad it's Saturday tomorrow as it's another Elemental Dragon design which I know I will want to stitch on all day. If I do have to put it down I might follow in Katie's footsteps and start pouting!

Until tomorrow then,

Love and hugs
