I am stitching a Stitch A Long from Papillon Creations that is for 2 years entitles Castles in the Air! I have been having so much fun stitching this and learning all sorts of speciality stitches!!


Items that I choose for my version of the SAL:
Fabric 28 ct Ivory Monoco Linen

Medium Green: DMC 368
Pale green: DMC 369
Floral colour1: DMC 604
Floral colour 2: DMC 150
Floral colour 3: DMC 309
Floral colour 4: DMC 154
Floral colour 5: DMC 155
Floral colour 6: DMC 341
Floral colour 7: DMC 725
Floral colour 8: DMC 727
Metallic thread: DMC Precious Metal Effects E168 (5283) Silver
Bead 1: Bead Treasures Glass Ceylon Seed Beads-Lavender
Bead 2: Bead Treasures Glass Ceylon Seed Beads-Lt Blue


Here is a pic of Part 1 with the beads added. I took them off because I did not like the way they were stitched every which way.



Here is a pic of Part 2. Not exactly straight but you get the idea.




I think I will be able to finish Part 3 tonight. I will upload a pic when it is complete.


Tomorrow I will be getting the sewing machine out and trying to finish Anthony's pj pants....hard task for me LOL
