Bluebeard has a Princess

Image
Bluebeard's Princess is complete and ready to swim through the oceans. The fabric is more dark blue than gray. And the camera doesn't like picking up shiny. A close up of the metallics and beads on her tail. And my roses are back. A little earlier than usual.

I'm finished with the DMC on my mermaid. I have four caron waterlilies and four Kreinik #4 braids to add before backstitching and then beads! Lots and lots of beads.  

Half a mermaid

Her top half is done, minus specialty threads and beads. Also was asked to make two baby blankets, so I did those this week. Back to writing. I'm a little stuck on one piece, but started another. Hopefully something will jog loose for my other projects.

Changing projects

Had to change projects a few times this week. Started with Dragon Carousel which I had been working on for a while. I got bored and tired of dealing with blending filaments. Picked up Fox for a day. But the thread is a wool/acrylic blend and I felt a little itchy. So far Bluebeard's Princess is keeping my attention. And here's Clyde.

Day 18: Mythical Mansion SAL The frog visited me a lot during this one. Day 19: Royal Games II Day 20: Wagon Buddies Pillow Day 21: Bluebeard's Princess Day 22: Birds of Paradise Not sure I have enough of the first color, the 3rd 'hank' is half the length of everything else.
