July:
From 11th June till 10th July I stitched the following items that count as a tiny:The Mucha Princess inspired fob - you can read all about it, and find the pattern for both this and several other colour variations here: Fob a Month - 4. You can also finish this as a normal biscornu as Carla did with hers, you can find the photo here: Tons of Tiny Everything Since April....I Think
And as usual I made my Ornament of the Month - this time just the one as I still need to do the garland finish one. As this is the ornament finish I added the border from the wall hanging option to make it larger than the basic ornament, that I finish as a garland addition. It's 3" square and made on 16ct antique white Aida with 3 colours of DMC, seed beads and a bicone. You can find the pattern here: Ornament of the month - July
August:
From 11th July till 10th August I didn't stitch as much, mostly because I went on holiday with my bf for 10 days in this time and of course I was quite busy in the run up to it. I did however find time to do the monthly fob, though I posted about it after I returned.
The Fob of the Month fob was inspired by my holiday plans: to go to Hastings pirate day and be a wench for the day. I used glow in the dark thread for this just to add a bit of a surprise that one would not normally expect from a fob. You can find the pattern here: Fob a Month - 5
Last of all I did the August ornament of the month It's the same size etc as the ornament above, except I used a flower bead instead of a bicone on the tassel. You can find the pattern here: Ornament of the Month - August
As all of these are single sided, that brings the grand total to 31 tiny's
Oh Magical, Queen of the Tinies! You have so many pretty little finishes this year, it's really lovely to look at ^_^
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I have been doing a lot more small stuff as a result of Carla's SAL - and my own 2 of course - but Carla's has really pushed me to try and do more small stuff. :) Thanks! :D
DeleteCongrats on all of the cute finishes.

Thank you! :D
Deletegosh I just cannot decide which ornament I love the best! I hope you do the fobs for the new princesses as they are released...they are so FUN!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are having trouble choosing! Perhaps - but then different than the ones I already made.
