Merry Christmas From New Zealand

Sheep Virtues 'Peace'

The third pattern called Peace in the Sheep Virtues series, designed by Little House Needleworks,

As with my others I still have the buttons to stitch on.

Sheep Virtues 'Love'

Here is my Sheep Virtues cross stitch Love is the second of the Sheep Virtues series, designed by Little House Needleworks,

I am enjoying stitching this series and have just joined up to stitch the Frosty Forest series by Cottage Country Needleworks and there is a blog called Frosty Forest SAL you can join to show your progress.

This looks like it going to be nice project to do with the first pattern now released.

A Long Stitch

Not exactly a cross stitch, but a long stitch.  I stitched this kit a number of years ago after receiving it as a gift from my family for Christmas.  I did enjoy doing it at the time but am not that keen on longstitch still. 

Some Oldies

Over the years I have done a lot of Cross Stitching.  Sometimes I go full speed ahead and sometimes very slow.  Most I have got photos of, but there are some I have unfortunately missed out on getting before I gave them away as presents.

Anyway here are some I have never posted pictures of before.

These first two were a couple of kits I got from my sister'n'law one Christmas.

I had a fascination with chooks at one time and had to stitch this.

Everyone loves Piglet

and also Tiger

 This Cherished Teddies was one of my first Cross Stitches I done and was a big momentum for me at the time to finish it.

Candy Shoppe

Here is another item I sent to my partner for the Christmas In July swap I was in this year mentioned in the previous post.

This pattern is call Candy Shoppe and is a Dimensions design.  It was completed on 14 count natural cotton Aida.  

Peace Joy Love

I was this year in a Christmas in July swap and this is one of the items I made for my partner.

It is a free design from Lizzie Kate I have used before and you can find it here with some other free designs

Sheep Virtues - Hope

Hope is the first of the Sheep Virtues series, designed by Little House Needleworks, I have started.

It is stitched on 30 Count Dark Chino Linen Fabric which I found hard at first but now have got a lot more use to it. Still to add is the cute little button.

Currently I am slowly working on the second design Love .
