You saw this one before when I finished stitching her. But, today she is "finish finished." This pattern is a LHN Freebie, but I didn't write down where I found it. :( And I wrote Christmas Girl on the pattern but I'm not sure that is the name of the pattern. If anyone recognizes this pattern and will email me, I will post the info and link, if possible. She is my second experiment with beaded edging and this one went much smoother than my first try. Thanks to Snippets and Stash for her tutorial and to Carol at Stitching Dreams for pointing the way to the tutorial.
I actually have some blue/green beads that I want to use for a beaded edging so I picked out an overdye thread that matched pretty well and now all I need is a pattern for a Christmas ornament that would look great monochromatic. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Here is my new start-it is LHN Traveling Stitcher. The needlebook is finished and the rest has a good start.I am wanting to stitch the LHN boy skater ornament in JCS 2010 ornament issue. But I don't have the pattern for the girl skater ornament. Does someone have that pattern I could borrow or trade for?
Hey, did you hear about the Crazy January Challenge 2011? Check this out-I am thinking seriously about joining in!
It seems that I recently saw a girl skater...I will look around my disaster area! Love the finished girl.

Crazy January Challenge truly is crazy! For a second, I thought "maybe." Then my brain kicked into gear and there is no way. LOL Good luck, if you go for it.
ReplyDeleteCute LHN freebie finish

Hi - the beaded edging looks great. What is the name of the piece at the top of your blog with the kitten peeking out? I keep thinking about that darling face.
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous- Thank you for your kind words. Here is the story of my kitty pillow-http://atwillowtreepond.blogspot.com/2010/10/story-of-my-blog-header-photo.html
ReplyDeleteTeresa - Thanks for the link to the story of the kitty pillow. I will keep an eye out for the kit. My daughter was born in 1978 so same time frame as you.
