Look What I Did!!

This is from one of the classes I took at the PAL's Stitch Retreat last weekend in Myrtle Beach. The stitching was really fun to do and I really enjoyed using the fibers the designer used. I'm waiting to hear back from the Mary of M--Designs to find out what the brand was....I forgot what she told us in class.

I'm really proud of myself for actually finishing this into the pouch, I didn't think I could pull it off. BTW, Focus on Finishing has some really good directions - but they were in French! The pictures helped me get the concept down. I will definately being doing more of these - they would make great gifts for someone who's a stitcher or someone who really appreciates what goes into stitching!

I completed this ornament when I was in Myrtle Beach too. It's the Eiffel Tower from the 2007 JCS Ornament issues. I plan to finish it as a pinkeep using the same blue for the backing as used in the words, with a black ribbon and most likely silver head pins.

Thanks for looking!
