Fairy Tales Blog Hop

Published on by Bumbleberry Stitches

Thank you so much for stopping by. I’m so happy to participate in this weeks hop.

When planning for the hop I had several different ideas. First the watercolor dream I have of one day starting my painting again. But, this is a sewing group and I didn’t think anyone would have been interested in that.

Then there was the Little Red Riding Hood cross stitch project I could do. Problem is I’m not a fast stitcher. I wouldn’t have been anywhere close to being finished. That brings to mind another dream. Starting projects I can finish. Seriously, who am I kidding? Being a finisher is a Fairy Tale.

So I decided I would use my embroidery machine to start a project that would give me finished blocks to show and I could just decide how to finish it later.

I settled on the Frog Prince and the Fairy Tale designs from OESD. They stitched out so nice. I’m loving them all.

I changed a few of the colors so that the Frog Prince would work with the Castle and others. It saved on threads too. These designs can take quite a few threads and the cost does add up.

I was unable to stitch up the Princess, ran out of stabilizer. So I have that to finish later. lol

Thanks so much for stopping by.

  11. Oh Theresa those stitcheries are just adorable. I haven’t really sat down with my embroidery machine, to play in a very long time. I would love to see your watercolors some time. We are a fabric based group, but I’m sure I can speak for us all, when I say, we “LOVE” seeing all kinds of arts used. Thanks for joining in and inspiring me to do more embroidery!

  12. Theresa this is beautiful! I love OESD designs! Great job. Wish we were closer, I would have given you some stabilizer. I have amassed quite a collection through the years! You’ll have to post a finish soon! I would have been interested in the watercolor dream! I used to oil paint and still do a little with acrylics. Just started doing some of Helen Godden’s painting on fabric. You should check her out. A great way to combine two loves! Thanks for sharing!
