Mixed bag of projects...
I am not sure I have posted here so here is a mixed bag of some of what I am stitching at present... I started Mermaid of the Pearls quite a while ago... She sat looking like this for a long time:
After tonight she now looks like this:
She is the most annoying mermaid to stitch. I am not sure why, but I am not enjoying stitching her as much as I did Waiting for Ships, or Mermaids of the Deep Blue. There isn't the same colour flow I think and so you are jumping here, there and everywhere with colours.
And here is an update on Lily - she is a very slowly progressing WIP simply because she may only get 20-40minutes every time I am at work:
Loving Fire Goddess. The ball of fire in her hand is gorgeous:
A little more of her skirt is done too
If you are at all interested I have a stitching blog too - found here: http://aflyingneedle.wordpress.com/
Thanks for looking!

no subject
I stitch Chatelaines - but they are expensive to kit up.
Papillon Creations and Ink Circles are also good fun.
There are some good books from the library, but you have to know who to look for. I liked the Readers Digest 1000 pattern book, and Lesley Teares books have interesting things. Joan Elliott also has a few books.
Hope this helps :D
