I have been busy just not really stitching on my big projects much because I don't have the time to sit much.
For afternoon tea you've already seen this photo but I may as well show you again :D it's so pretty with one page finished!
Now please excuse the really bad photos it's pouring down rain here and it's hard to get decent light.
I have worked on Jardin Prive. Not much as I have been trying to work on Geisha Girl and another project which I will tell you about tomorrow!
You can see the shadow of my hands at the bottom ... as I said really bad picture but you get the idea. I noticed something though when I was reading the letters in the alphabet. They have missed out a letter. Can anyone guess which one?
On an exciting note I have FINISHED Geisha Girl!
I am going to finish this one into a needle book as I have nothing to keep my needles in. I really need to find some decent quality wool felt.
So those are the main projects that I have been working on and I have one more little finish to show you tomorrow.
All the best.
Caitlin
All of the projects looks great. :) It looks like you have managed to do quite a bit even with being so busy and stuff. Good luck on finishing with the move.

Whoops. Is it J? Great progress!
ReplyDeleteI think the H is missing!
ReplyDeleteNice geisha!
Succes with finding a job, it is hard everywhere in this world...
You made some lovely progress =)
ReplyDeleteSometimes time is just flying by, but it's wonderful to see your stitching again =)
The Geisha girl looks adorable!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on all your projects :)
Aiks! I need to get my June WiPocalypse post up too. You're not the only one who's late. And I don't have any excuse. At least you could blame it on the move :P
ReplyDeleteOn some samplers (especially ones that are or designed to be prior to mid 1700s), the letters J and U are missing because Roman alphabets had neither of them, their places being filled by I and V. In this case however, I see the U is present :)

Looking good Caitlin. I love your little Geisha girl. She's darling. And for some reason I can't remember atm, they often leave off the letters J and U from samplers. I wish I could remember the reason, but I sure can't.
ReplyDeleteLookin' good and making great progress!
