Speaking of Papillon....

Yep, just as I start the new Papillon Creations mystery SAL for 2009, I finally get the SAL from last year back from the framer!

This is How Does Your Garden Grow? Stitched on Silkweaver's Solo 32ct Belfast linen with Needle Necessities floss, and MH beads.

I also finished a CharlesCraft tote bag for my niece's birthday in May! The design is from the My Aunt's Attic blog, a butterfly motif stitched with 5 different Anchor varigated flosses.

Floral Motif on a Tote

Today I finished my second project of the year....a tote bag (gift) with a floral motif from the Dutch blog My Aunt's Attic . I used some Janlynn floss from a varigated threadpack someone gave me, pink for the roses, green for the leaves and yellow for the rest. I'm quite pleased by it, and plan to do another using a butterfly motif in four different Anchor varigated colors. Watch for that in the next few months. Below is the tote bag, and also a close up of the floral motif.
