Fido





Here is Fido an embroidered dog for Lilly :)
It features ribbon roses, bullion roses and the usual freinch knots and other straight stitches. These are lots of fun to make too!!

Eric The Red






This is a beaded pot made for my Dad. This is a very time consuming project, yet very rewarding as i feel the end result is wonderful!! I am looking forward to making more pots in the different patterns featured in a book i have, called Beaded Boxes by Julia Pretl.

Felix Felicis Necklace






I made this for a swap at the Harry Potter crafts group, its a miniature bottle of the ultimate good luck potion, Felix Felicis!! Its made using Swarovski crystals and the spiral rope stitch.
I also made a mobile phone charm with "Grow-Your-Own-Wart" potion in a miniature bottle.

Beaded Thistles





These cute thistles are beaded over a wooden bead using a netted stitch. The tops are stitched using a very easy fun "rolled" flower. This design is by Diane Fitzgerald, i bought this kit about 6 years ago, and finally made it up during the past week. I bought a new vase to display them in....it gorgeous Royal Doulton!!!
