Downunder Discourse: Stash Enhancement

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/stash-enhancement.html

Monday, February 26, 2007. Yesterday I visited a lovely friend who had been 'clearing out' as we all do. She had in her "I dont' need these anymore" pile a bunch of. Designs so I decided to rehome them for her. Aren't I helpful? French Openwork (I REALLY like this one). Wandering Vine (an afghan), and. I need more hours. Tannia, Tannia (she whispers evilly), let me entice you into the underworld of Shepherd's Bush stitchers! Uh-oh, you'd better hide that credit card real quick - lol! I am making my secon...

Downunder Discourse: Some progress pictures...

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/some-progress-pictures.html

Saturday, February 03, 2007. This is the progress on "Dad's Sampler". It is from the "Australian Embroidery and Cross Stitch" magazine and if anyone really wants to know which issue just ask.I will look (I do think I've posted that info before.). I've completed all the dividing bands (after much frogging and restitching) and all the lettering is over one - I think the fabric is 32 count Dublin linen but it's been so long since I started this one - I forget! I am aiming to finish this square, tomorrow :).

Downunder Discourse: State of the nation

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/state-of-nation.html

Monday, February 26, 2007. State of the nation. Last night I started one of the initials in the M Designs project.the letters seem to be a really quick stitch because there's so much more 'space' and less stitches! I should knock over the "T" today. I will need to order the other initial this week I guess so I have it here when I need it! As an aside - if you happen to have the "W in your stash and you've used it already and you want to trade it - let me know :). So not to worry! Blogging the new album!

Downunder Discourse: Ta da!

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/ta-da.html

Tuesday, February 20, 2007. Well here it is - le biscornu magnifique! Is a biscornu feminine or masculine? I'm going with masculine for now! I just realised I don't even know for sure that 'biscornu' is actually FRENCH.someone please feel free to correct me! I am not sure I've stuffed it enough and I have yet to find a button for it - but none the less I am happy with how it turned out. Carol WAS right - they are pretty easy to make! I hope they're surprised when they open the package :). The musings of ...

Downunder Discourse: My Christmas Miracle....NOT!

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/my-christmas-miraclenot.html

Tuesday, February 06, 2007. My Christmas Miracle.NOT! Thanks for all your comments on my Christmas Ham and as promised.here is the tale that surrounds it and will ensure that last Christmas goes down in the family memoirs as one to remember! This post is a copy of a post I made to the cooking bulletin board at work. If now you are thinking of Con the Fruiterer, you are in the exact same brainspace as me! I asked George to source for me a small leg of mildly cured ham, about 5-6 kilos or so would be fine!

Downunder Discourse: I'm turning into a 'stitcher of smalls"!!!

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/here-it-is.html

Sunday, February 25, 2007. I'm turning into a 'stitcher of smalls"! Here it is.biscornu number two! This one is a motif form the Ackworth Motif book and I used Caron Watercolours in Bark and a really creamy uneven natural linen. It has a very open weave so the watercolours covered really nicely. Again I didn't button it because I didn't want to cover the design up AND I only decided to stitch it yesterday AND I didn't have a suitable button handy ha ha ha! I'm really happy with how it's moving along.

Downunder Discourse: A biscornu.....almost!

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/biscornualmost.html

Sunday, February 18, 2007. Well I achieved an almost done biscornu this weekend. It's three-quarters stitched, but I realised too late that I dont have any stuffing so I have to wait until after work tomorrow to stuff it and sew up the last side. I ended up using a Judy Dixon design, blue lugana and Caron watercolours in Charcoal and a complimentary DMC.I must say it looks ok and I am pretty pleased with how it's finishing up!

Downunder Discourse: The Cat in the Hat is 50!

http://downunderdiscourse.blogspot.com/2007/02/cat-in-hat-is-50.html

Saturday, February 17, 2007. The Cat in the Hat is 50! Newsletter I got today, "The Cat in The Hat" is turning 50 on the 2nd March 2007! In our lifetime, there may never be another revolution like it. And, as revolutions often do, this one started in a small way. In 1957, Dr. Seuss was asked to write 'a story that first graders can't put down'. Given a list of 236 words drawn up by three experts, Seuss wrote 'The Cat in the Hat' and changed the world as we know it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
