I have finished the stitching on the Siren and the Shipwreck!

 

Let the beading begin...

Siren's tail goes on and on! 



Siren's Inspiration

 

My Progress on Siren has been hindered by a back injury I sustained last week (I had hoped to be further along), but I am none the less excited to be moving on to the last part of her tail!

This is Darwin, a Betta I kept in my office until very recently when he found a new home with Kristle. He is my inspiration for this mermaid, the coloration is an exact match! I have recently become a betta hoarder, I have 4 between my home and office, so I decided to embrace the madness and create a blog with my co-workers (who also have bettas at work!), it can be found here: www.bettahoarders.blogspot.com

March IHSW SS Mermaid

 Here is my starting point for IHSW...

 A close up of all those lovely colors...

 

 And here is my progress! I am really pleased with this project so far and cannot wait until her tail is done! I have decided not to stitch the chandelier and have a surprise planned for that space, so stayed tunned! the Maiden



SS Mermaid

More progress on Siren and the Shipwreck, I could not get a good picture, in person she just leaps off the fabric...

I am supposed to rotate to Roses of Provence this week as part of a SAL with Juls, but I am not sure I am going to be able to put her down! The Maiden

Siren and the Salvage

 I have absolutely no self control, and as a consequence I have started the Siren and the Shipwreck by Mirabilia! After the weekend, where I stitched at Juls and watched The Walking Dead, I have finished the hair.   

The fabric I chose is the crystal version of my zombie fabric, so naturally I had some reservations about sticking a mermaid on it, but... I decided this particular mermaid was in fact salvaging human artifacts after the zombie apocalypse. Perfect!
