Bejewelled Pumpkin/Dynia na bogato

 

 

Juz wlasciwie nie jesien (snieg u nas padal kilka dni temu), ale jeszcze nie zima. Akurat mam robotke, ktora wspaniale pasuje do takiego sezonu - dynia, ale taka bardziej wypasiona, blyszczaca koralikami niczym choinkowa bombka. Chociaz nigdy przedtem nie wyszywalam koralikami w takiej ilosci, to ogolem wyszywalo sie swietnie i latwo. Perforowany papier zawarty w zestawie Mill Hill, zastapilam granatowa Lugana. Ramke kupilam osobno. 

It's not really Fall anymore (we had a snowfall here the other day), but not yet Winter, either. I have a perfect project to show for such a season - a cross stitch pumpkin, but one that shimmers with beads like a Christmas ornament. Even though I never embroidered with beads to this degree before, I found this project to be fun and quite easy. I substituted the perforated paper included in the Mill Hill kit with navy Lugana. The frame was purchased separately.

 

 

Tak wygladal haft zanim przyszylam koraliki:

This is how the embroidery looked before I attached the beads:

A tak z koralikami:

Acorns / Zoledzie

Dzisiaj krociutko, bo robotka mala, szybka i latwa. Zoledzie na drutach. Mozna tez zrobic z zoltej wloczki i bez czapeczek, i beda... ozdobne cytryny. Pozdrawiam wszystkich serdecznie. Do nastepnego postu.

Today - a quick, short post, since the project is small, fast and easy. Knit acorns. One can also make them using yellow yarn, skip the caps and you get... ornamental lemons. Wishing everyone a great day. Until next post.
