Happy Valentines day chart

Or just a generic love one. 

Another early morning without internet made me feel a little desperate and after an hour playing CIV on the computer I decided to do something a bit more sensible. So I made a chart. I am hoping to do some more in the Valentines spirit in time for the big day. This is a good piece to use up all those scraps   of floss and you can pick your favorite part and just stitch some words into a card.

I haven't made any charts in a while so I may be a little rusty though.

This is how it will look.

And here are my selection of floss and chart.

Again, you can use my chart and make all the cross stitches you want, but please do not sell the chart or your finished piece.

Two of a kind

 So, my fist Star-Trek pattern is finished. I like the effect of the white sparkling text. Love the blue (although on camera it looks purple) cloth. I adore the ship ( even if I changed it a little in the next wip) What I am slightly ambivalent about is the text itself, I am not too sure about it's placement. So I changed it:

 This is my second Christmas-gift finish, (Here is the fist one) almoooost finished. I will get it done before I go to bed, even if it will take me all night!
I like this one better. Boyfriend asked to have his text askew like this, so I did that. His letters are done in silver DMC and there is another little difference between this ship and the one above, can you find it? LOVE LOVE LOVE this design, and I already have the frame for it I think.

I started on my halloween stitch. Here I also changed some of the colours from the chart, because black on black is not really visible. I think this is going to turn out really cool. I want to make the whole set.

Here is a link to look at how it will hopefully turn out :(the design)

Another Freebie, because it is that time of year. I caught boyfriend humming a christmas carol the other day even though he fervently believes in no christmas-songs until atleast December.

And, I made bunny a toy, because all day she has been sleeping next to me on the carpet while I have been sewing (she did that yesterday too, through 12 episodes of Bones season 7) and I thought she needed some stimuli. Now the carpet is full of hay. But I WON, because, she has been chewing on the twigs! And she never does that unless we hold them up for her to chew, apparently, twigs are not interesting on the floor by themselves. Can you see her little open mouth? I love my bunny. ^^

On a footnote, Ben did not win, but not my fault, I did vote once:P 

And something else that I have two of now (almost two of finished christmas-gifts, keep forgetting that the blue Star-Trek pattern is a birthday-gift), signed A1 cd's. Yay.

I got faith of the heart

So, since this is bunday, here is a picture of Mimle, a bad cellphone one, but I was home alone, and she decided I needed some company and joined me on the sofa. She sat there with me for a long time while I watched some tv, and stitched....

.....THIS:

And, now, I am finished. A Minnie and Mickey design. I know I haven't shown you anything selfmade in a while. But the course is rather intense, and it is the secret season after all;) 

This was an DMC kit. I found some of the red squares oddly placed, so I decided they should be the same on each side so that they were symmetrical atleast. And added some backstitch to areas I thought there should be backstitch, like one of Minnie's ears were not backstitched. Odd. But as always with DMC the threads were nice, the chart easy to follow and the colouring good. Just think the design process should have been perfected a little more before the design went into the shops, don't know if it matters anymore though, since I heard that they will stop selling Disney designs.... ^^

If you are here for another free design, I have another small Christmas bauble in store for you.

Isn't it cute? If you didn't know I love bunnies. And bunnies and christmas do match. I am going to make all of these on perforated paper and hang them on a string :)

Oh, and the poll for some reason does not work, last time I checked the bunnies were winning, so unless more people than four (which were the number of votes on the bunnies last I checked) disagree that the bunnies should win, then they must leave a vote in the comment section of this post. And then we will see which design I have to make. You have until the 31st. Good luck.


Yeah, and we are watching Star Trek Voyager and Enterprise simultaneously, that is where the title of the post comes from. And so far I can say that Enterprise is a lot more fun than Voyager, sorry Kate.
