Ta-DAH! I finished it! 7 months, 2 weeks agoI took Deborah Mitek’s class “Summer’s End” at the Pacific Southwest Region seminar in Las Vegas. Well, obviously I really enjoyed that class because yesterday I finished it, only a week-after getting back from Vegas! 😃 It’s my first time using silk ribbon and it makes some great flower petals.

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 1 year, 2 months agoFinished my Stumpwork Tree of Life. Yes, that’s a Kraken down on the right hand corner.
-
Interesting Tree of Life.
-
Every culture on earth has a tree of life motif. Mine is not from any nationality, it’s a witches tree of life. Earth, Air, Fire and the Water of life, with a window to the universe and it’s stars. The Apples go from gold to purple across the arch of the sky. As Above, So Below, Blessed Be.

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 1 year, 3 months agoThis is the first of twenty pieces I’m doing for a stumpwork double casket. (The four seasons double casket by Tricia Wilson Nguyen of Thistle Threads.) This will end up on the inside of the right-hand door.
Next up: a similar flower basket design for the inside of the left door. Like this one it will be done mostly in silk-wrapped…[Read more]

This is beautiful, Tim. On the INSIDE of the door???? Really!?!?!? Hard to hide something like this. Keep posting your progress— most of us are envious!
-
Well, something had to go on the inside. There are another 18 panels on the outside. Those will be needlelace and other common stumpwork techniques. I think Tricia decided to put the silk-wrapped purl designs on the inside to help protect them; if the purls are snagged they can easily be bent out of shape.
Here’s the link to the course page on…[Read more]

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 1 year, 8 months agoI just finished “Tudor Rose & Pomegranate” by Cynthia Jackson. (The design is available from Inspirations Studios.) This is only my second goldwork project but I’m very happy with how it turned out.

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 1 year, 9 months agoOn Labor Day I finished my first stumpwork project, “Forest Floor” by Kay Dennis (from issue 104 of Inspirations magazine). It was a lot of fun, with a wide variety of techniques. (Needlelace, needle weaving, beads, etc.)
This is a very three-dimensional piece, somewhat difficult to capture in a still image.
-
I should note that the design is available for purchase in PDF format and last I checked the kits are still available too.
-
Very pretty. I am impress. I have so many inspiration magazine. Never attempted one. This give me encouragement to try.
-
Well done! It is beautiful!

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 1 year, 12 months agoHere are a couple things that I have finished in the last couple weeks – Edward Scissorfish from Beadalot, and Mariner’s Drum by Plum Street on Pirate linen from The Primitive Hare. More finishing this weekend!

I love these, Trudy!

Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing.

They look awesome Trudy!

I haven’t seen anything like Edward Scissorfish before…beautiful and unique!

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 2 years, 2 months agoI started this Eileen Bennett Flax sampler probably 25 years ago when my chapter had her come teach for us. Put it away and then, when EGA offered it as an online class, I was inspired to finish it. I really enjoyed finishing it and kept thinking, “Why did I put this away for so long?!” I am so glad to be able to say, “Ta-DAH!”
-
Very beautiful. Thank you for sharing, you have inspired me to look through my unfinished items to see if I can find a diamond in the rough!!
-
Vera, I remember you telling us about this. A very pretty piece!
-
That’s exciting! It’s a comfort to know I’m not alone in my slowness to complete some projects. It’s always encouraging to hear about an old piece being finished. I feel fueled to go back to work on… Hmmm…which one.. 😀
Since I’ve only been actively embroidering for about two years now most of my old UFO’s are garments, but in just two…[Read more]

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 2 years, 5 months agoMy first finish of the new year! Due to the subject matter It was imperative that I not take months to finish it. LOL
-
Congratulations! Cute piece. I’ve had 2 finishes – one was a beaded Christmas cracker that is being offered through the Shining Needled Society by Catherine Hambrick. The other that I finished last night was a UFO that was started years ago so feeling really good about that one.

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 2 years, 8 months agoFinally Finished this one! I began it several years ago and put it away. I decided this year was the year to finish it. It’s called Williamsburg Virginia Christmas and, even though I don’t particularly like blackwork, I had to do it because Williamsburg and Christmas are two of my favorite things.
-
Just beautuful!
-
This is lovely, Vera, and your framing looks perfect!! Now you can enjoy just at Christmas or all year long!!
-
Thank you!
-
The blackwork is lovely! And a perfect ground George the wreaths and Christmas tree. You may not prefer doing it, but you do good work.

Ta-DAH! I finished it! 3 years, 5 months agoI finally finished Elizabeth! I began her several years ago and finished the cross stitch over a year ago but could not get up the nerve to finish finishing her. When I did right after Christmas this year I found that it was not nearly as difficult as I had built up in my mind. Now I am obsessed and almost finished the cross stitch part of…[Read more]

That is beautiful! Was that a kit?
-
Thank you. It wasn’t a kit. The pattern was in Sampler & Antique Needlework magazine Summer 2014 issue and I bought the head from brierrose.com.

Irony. Vera, I started this project earlier in January. I’ve finished the embroidery for the doll; today, started the companion trunk. Assembly of both to follow. When the designs came out in 2012, Needle in a Haystack in Alameda,CA, kitted up the two pieces. Love the colors.
-
Are you going to make the tray and pincushion that go in the trunk? Guilia made the instructions for making them free on her website puntiantichi.com. I haven’t decided whether to make the trunk and I don’t remember what fabric I used for her skirt so that I could make them the same.

That finishing is not an easy task. It looks beautiful – Congrats on the finish!
