Half term

Well, it is half term here for the children and we are going up to our caravan for the week. The car is packed with crafty bits so I can crack on without distractions in the evenings. Hopefully, there will be pics galore when I return.
Hoping to do some cycling and walking whilst we are away and maybe even have afternoon tea at the world famous "Betty's Tearooms" in Harrogate.

Castles in the Air part 15

Here it is. The blackwork gate drove me crazy but I love how it looks now.
Thanks for looking in.

Peacock stitchers? Look at this stash!

I thought I would show you my collection of stitchable peacocks.

The first pic is of kits and the second is of charts I have collected.

Most of them are cross stitch but that is fine with me.
I have also started a blackwork and cross stitch pattern that was in a magazine approx a year ago. Here is my progress.

Bye for now and thanks for looking in.

Castles update, part 14

Here is a picture of the Castles in the Air project I am doing. So far I have completed 14 of the 24 parts

So far........So good

Well, I decided it was probably time I got myself a blog.
Here is a little bit about me.
I am a 43yr old Mum of two. I love all crafts but particularly needlework (all types) and Parchment craft.
I have an obsession with all things peacock and have several pieces of stiching on the go including Teresa Wentzler's Peacock Tapestry and Papillon Creations Castles in the Air.
I'll take some photo's and pop them in my next post.
