Tackle stitching projects

I made a big attempt at tackling all the stitching/cross stitch kits, of various descriptions which I have, and am pleased with my progress.  Not everything is done, but I didn't expect that, and I've now started Christmas projects.

Some of these photos have been posted before, but for completeness I'm putting them altogether.

Felt craft kits:

   

Kits which were part of a surprise bundle I bought

So many fun kits! They look great. Love the fuzzy bee and the little house.

Thank you very much. It was a good way to spend the summer.

Cross stitch is a great summer craft, I did quite a bit myself, but I haven't posted pics of everything yet. One of these days I'll get around to it. Knitting season is coming now though!

I like the bee best!

[smallhobbit]

I was very pleased with the bee. I've worn it as a brooch once.

I cannot get over these!!! Every single one is so lovely and satisfying to look at. What magazine do they come in?

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. I subscribe to CrossStitcher magazine. I don't keep all the kits, but there are s lot I like.

oh the felt crafts are super cute

[smallhobbit]

Thank you. Yes, I really like them. I bought myself one and was given the other.

These are all so lovely! The bee is so fluffy! The cat! The house with the bicycle detail! The two parter looks like a window frame! The needlepoint needle (?) case!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much - I'm delighted you like them :)

[adafrog]

Cool.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you 😁

Gorgeous, all of them. That cat is adorable. But I love the Best Wishes card best of all - such a summer vacation feel about it, with the sea and the birds and the lovely little house.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. I'm thinking of giving the cat to my granddaughter for Christmas. I'm delighted you like the card 😃

More catching up. All of these cross stitch projects are fantastic! That exquisite needle case is my favourite, though everything else is beautiful as well. I love the black cat, the little house, and the window. :-D

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much - the needle case is not only pretty, but practical, as I now have somewhere I can keep my needles to hand without losing them!
