Added Freebie Links List

I have found many great freebie sites and blogs and don't always remember where I saw something nice since I have stored the info all over. So I decided to write them all down and you can see them too! Just click the link Srinity's Freebie List which you can also find from the side bar. I'll add more when I come across new ones.

A gift and a card for my friend Michiko

My dear stitching friend Michiko has a birthday later this week. Happy Birthday Michiko!
I sent her a present and stitched a card to go with it. The chart is a freebie from Ancsanapló-blog, I stitched a part of this chart. Go and have a look, there is many great freebie charts.

I wanted to give her something Finnish so I gave her a small Aalto-bowl. Aalto-bowl is very famous design in Finland.



Here is also picture of the card.

WIP QS White Rose Fae - 26th of October

I totally lost my mojo to stitch the Fae after I had been stitching her all summer. Now I got it back and here is how she looks like today. She still on the Q-snaps and you can see the floor stand clamp in the photo. I didn't even remember to post about the floor stand when it arrived. It's really been helpful and my shoulders are not so stiff as I don't have to hold the frame. I bought the Posilock Floor Stand and the Helping Hand for use with the rotating frame. I hope I'll finish this one soon. :)

Ever growing stash

I read from Chiloe's blog about a Belgium online store that is closing. Yesterday I received the stash I ordered from them. The shop is Le Soleil et La Lune and they still have a lot of stash on sale. I finally got some charts with sheep so I am happy. :) I got the "Wool Needlebook and Scissor Fob" from Little House Needlework and "CrabApple Hill Cottage" from Elizabeth's Needlework Designs. I also got some lovely multicolour threads from Anchor and hand dyed floss from Crescent Colours and a piece of red Wichelt-Permin linen for Christmas ornaments. Look at those cute sheep! :)


Oh I almost forgot. HAED released some new charts by Adele Sessler. I fell in love with the chart called Healers Touch and as there is a sale I bought it. :) It's so gorgeous. There is a lot of black around the picture so I ordered some black evenweave so I don't have to stitch all that black. Click the picture to see it larger on HAED's site.

Yarnful October

I had to start buying materials for Christmas presents so I had to drop off from the Yarnless October group. I bought three balls of Novita's 7 Veljestä yarn, three spools of Villamokka's hand dyed yarn (one Trabant and two Twices, pictures are links to Villamokka blog) and two balls of Step sock yarn. So I'll start knitting the presents and no pictures of them are coming here before Christmas. :) Some of the yarns are still on their way since my brother's fiancee went to buy them as they live near the Villamokka shop. She'll bring them to me next time they are coming to visit us.

I won a spot prize!

There was a Mermaid bingo at the HAED BB. I came quite close, I had ten when Clare called the Bingo (needed 12). I didn't win the bingo but I did win a spot prize, a QS, SK or TT chart of my choice. I chose QS Venus Dryad from Annie Rodrigue. I love the green and brown colours and her expression. What a great addition to my collection. I am still planning on stitching all the charts I have. :) Thank you Fudgey for arranging the bingo!

HAED's birthday and some shopping

Heaven and Earth Designs is celebrating their birthday. Congratulations! They have -25% sale today. And I bought a couple... My HAEDs are starting to be more and more a collection, but it's nice to collect beautiful things. ;)

Here are my new additions
Selina Fenech's Splash ja Sara Butcher's Luna QS (pictures are links). Oh so pretty! :)

Baby Booties

My sister's friend had a baby girl recently and I desided to knit her little booties. They are knitted from Novita Wool yarn, colour is pale lilac.
