Fully Finished Objects in June

 

Rachel, Ten Hour Stitcher, hosts Fully Finished Objects for us to show and tell about the crafty items we have completely finished.

I have completed a couple of items but am still playing catch up. My needle certainly seems to have slowed down, as do my eyes as I'm very behind in blog reading. I seem to be out of routine with quite a few things! 


This is my first finish, it was a spring challenge at Needlecraft Haven. It was Lotus Mandala by The World of Stitches.

I used it to cover the label on a cardboard box I have. It came with some candles but I use it for my seed packets. 


My other fully finish is my 12 Days of Christmas piece. This is my Jardin Prive design, I have not made up my Plum Street Sampler yet. 

Thanks Rachel for hosting, it does spur me on to get things finished I just need to spur on with my stitching now.

I like your idea of mounting a x-stitch piece on your box of seeds - this gave me some ideas for what to do with my accumulating pieces. I like this Mandala and thank you for the link where there are so many pretty charts.

Your 12 Days of Christmas ornies are going to be a beautiful collection. I'm looking forward to seeing both sets completed.

I think you summed it up perfectly with the words 'out of routine'. I couldn't quite put my finger on what my issue was but your words "out of routine" are bang on.

I hope you continue with improved health and soon return to normal or routine. I'm not sure I will recognize normal, especially since we in our province are still in a lockdown.

Take care and keep well. Kathy 🤗

Clare: Lovel finish, what a wonderful idea to use on the box.
Five Golden Rings is so sweet especially with the butterflies.
I hope you are soon back to normal, things are really opening up here in Minnesota.

That's a great box. Now you get to enjoy the box and the stitching. I love how you are finishing the Jordan Prive 12 Days. The beads are a great added touch.

A lovely stitch and it looks great on the box. Great idea to repurpose and cover it.
Nice finish for the golden rings!
