The Lavender Fairy, Finishing, and Other Stuff
24 October 2005
Yesterday I finished stitching “The Lavender Fairy,” but I have not yet made her into the promised flanged pillow because I have been playing with the notion of using the fabric that I was going to use to make the pillow and turn her into a wall hanging instead. I am not sure though, so I have decided to think about it for a couple of days before I dive in and finish her.
I was in a finishing mood today though and so I decided to finish up Dawn’s birthday gift. It took me all afternoon because I had to use the seam ripper a couple of times, but in the end what I made for her turned out awesome! I can’t wait to give it to her, because I know she will love it! Unfortunately, I can’t show a picture yet, but as soon as she gets it I definitely will.
Other than that, yesterday I stitched some more on my “Model ‘A’” for my EMS round robin. It is coming along pretty well and I hope to finish it up sometime this week. I would like to get it finished as soon as possible and get that robin back to its owner so that I can say that robin is finished. (Except for waiting for the return of my piece of course.)
Once I am done with the “Model ‘A’” I am going to finish “Passing Admirers.” In fact, here and now I have decided to give myself a new finishing date of November 15. If I get it done by then perhaps I can get it into the framer’s and have it framed and on my wall by Christmas.
