Mirabilia Madness

 The newer the phone, the worse the photos! 


This has seen quite a few rotations since it last hit the blog, but unfortunately does not see the light of day often.  While there are several new Mirabilia's I have kitted and awaiting a start, I would like to get some off my WIP list first:

~ Venetian
~Persephone
~Mother's Arms
~Roses of Provence
~Ophelia

August Fairy, Pretty to Think So, Andromeda, Aires and the Sea Merchant's Wife are awaiting the dreaded B's: beading and backstitch. 

Raven Queen and Ella and the Frog Princess may become UFO's as time passes, I just have not had the heart to retire them just yet...

Am I a monogamous stitcher?

 

Note quite, but this is as close as I will ever come! 


Chipping away at her dress and thought I would snap a quick photo between snap frame moves (I try to distract myself with other stitches, but I just keep coming back- and ignoring my life!)

I wrote in a journal over a year ago what my ideal life would look like, lazy mornings with no alarms, homemade hot cocoa and a stitch in hand...

I have been blessed to live this life in 2026!  The Maiden

Fall Bash

 

The temperature drops 2 degrees and I immediately switch into Fall mode! 

Jack's Bash has seen much progress since it's time on this blog, and since it is the only fall project I have in my WIPs it was back on the snaps (below is my starting point, I am still in love with the boarder). 


And here is where I got to! I often get stuck when it comes time to converting major components of a stitch, but I think I have this one almost figured out!
