HAPPY DANCE Page 2


Well this is a fun page .The colours are wonderful. mostly DMC shades of cream and Grey.
The main colour is Water lilies Prairie-Fire...oh it is so gorgeous IRL
It's pretty hard to take a good picture but you get the idea. The main stitch is called Scotch- Switch.
I like the pinwheels. I used 2 different colours on each one.
The page also has some sparlies and beads to add pazazz!

I have the next page to work on and I think it will be purple and mauve.


White christmas is fun to work on too. She had some attention this weekend so it's coming along. I did have to frog her neck because I was out by one stitch. I'm almost back to where i was. The needle marks the spot. So I'm close!
See you all soon and stitch with happy fingers.
We are in another snow storm so We'll huncker down and stitch...aw thats too bad isn't it ? LOL

That is so pretty, and I love the pinwheels too - specialty stitches somehow just make band samplers stand out.

Oh my, your sampler is an absolute beauty, Beatrice! Is it very hard to stitch on that black linen? I have a project I really want to start, but the black linen scares me off! Go on, tell me it's a doddle!
