Two finishes

It's been a good stitching weekend, two finishes, my heart looks good, I have added a few buttons, which were not on the pattern, all I have to do now is make it into a heart padded hanger. I will get my sewing machine out later this week. I have been asked where I found this pattern, it was on a freebee site, but I have looked and can't find it again to link here.

I am very pleased with my Tiger skin rug, I used Gold-Zack, Fray Check on the edge of my stitching before cutting it out, it does look very good in my doll's house, but I have decided to use it in a giveaway on my other blog site please pop over.

Now I have got all the bits together for Winter Watergarden, but I will also start another tigerskin.
I have also located a company in England who will supply the plastic stitching frames, Siesta Frame's so mine is on it's way to me. I have also got my threads delivered to my old house, the owners son was very helpful. I have also brought some new fabric for stitching. So I can't wait for the postman to come this week.
We had a good weekend, Josh showed us how good he was at bowling on our Wii, Sammy had loads of smiles for grancha, and both Fliss and Steve looked well.
