Sabrina

"Sabrina" by Mirabilia

 Stitched on 32ct ODlinen Vintage Light Exampler.

 



This project was never meant to be mine. After languishing for years, my desire to finish her was fueled by a compilation of photo's my Framer and Friend Sara Lamp had completed called

"the girl in the white dress" series.

Sara is the picture of Sabrina being lithe and blonde, and after all she has given me I could think of nothing more appropriate than gifting her this piece, my largest finish!

Sabrina Sits Patiently



Progress, progress and more progress! I just can't seem to put her down (although the new Mirabillia Mermaid may be incentive enough)!

 

I did attempt to work on Sleeping Princess this weekend, but Toby had other ideas! I should have listened, it was a disaster. Slow progress and frogging, so she had to go.

There is nothing like the flu to get your stitching mojo going!

 

 

More progress on Sabrina, she has come further in 2 weeks than in the past 2 years!

First IHSW of 2013

I wish I could have been healthier this weekend, but my immune system has taken a vacation. Boo Hiss! I did manage some progress on Sabrina (her future owner was in town last weekend for our 30th Birthdays, so I was inspired to work on her!).

 

The picture does not do it justice, but the sparklie flowers are coming in finally!

IHSW July

While I did not get as much accomplished as I wanted, I am still very pleased with my progress on Sabrina by Mirabilia! The best part is the little flower I got to start, you can't see it very well but there is kreinik in there! My most successful hermit in months! The Maiden

WIPocalypse July- Maiden

After weeks and weeks of mulling, I have decided to change my WIPocalypse list. La Clef will be deleted (I have not even started it, so technically I cannot consider it a WIP) and replaced with Sabrina by Mirabilia. Ever resistant to change, I did not want to make substitutions to the list, but I cannot seem to resist Sabrina!

I just spent the weekend in Denver with the future owner of Sabrina and came immediately home to work on this project for her. I had planned to bring this project to CO, but upon arrival I realized I had forgotten to pack my stitching! The horror! Gasp! I guess I will have to make up for it this weekend during the hermit stitch!

My plan is to alternate this project with Mediterranean Mermaid, a project that I now have a SAL partner for (yeah Julie!). The Maiden.

Here is an update on Sabrina by Mirabilia. This photo was taken by it's future owner Kristin. I was concerned by my fabric choice initially, but now I am convinced it is perfect! The Maiden

Mirabilia Sabrina

4 total rotations, none missed, and she is finally more than a floating head! This is the most intimidating piece I added to the rotation, she has so far to go and there is 6 skeins of white! The Maiden

Sabrina

When Kristen picked this Mirabilia we joked and said it could be a wedding gift (she was single), but now I fear I may run out of time with the appearance of a certain man in her life! With that in mind I started Sabrina, a modest start, but progress. The Maiden
