La-D-Da "Bo Peep" Framed, And My WIP

Hi, how are you spending your summer holiday?
I hope you are spending lovely summer.

The other day, I framed my finished piece "Bo Peep" © La-D-Da.
I was going to frame this in rich brown frame, but there wasn't the right frame in my stash, so I tried to frame it in this yellow-green frame that was in my stock.

Isn't this too bad?!
The size was just right for this design!
I gave this to my mum and she doesn't mind it in this frame, so I won't change, maybe...

Happy Dance! La-D-Da "Bo Peep" Finished

Hello, how is your summer holiday?
I have been busy to play with Tass my son, and also have been looking for his lots of homework.
In Japan, recently we have terrible sweltering hot weather everyday, we are like boiled...

毎日茹だるような暑さに参っています。
子供の頃は、30°C というと驚いていた記憶がありますが、ここ毎日35°C が当たり前で・・・
県北部では毎日の様に 37.5°C と、高温注意報。37.5°C なんて学校を休ませようかどうか？と迷う体温と同じですよね。
8月が恐ろしいね・・・と話していた通りになって怖い毎日です。

By the way, "Be Poop" © La-D-Da has finished tonight!
I'm so happy that I finally could finish this!! :D
I was thinking this would be more subdued colours from seeing others' finished pieces, but it wasn't, quite lovely.
Does it depend on colour of linen I choose?

"Bo-Peep" WIP 0712 - Leaves done

Hi, how have you been?
It's so humid day around here today... Summer has come, I heard cicada was shrilling this morning!!

今日は本当に蒸し暑い一日でした。
こちらは今日、「警報が出る可能性が大」という県教委の判断で小学校が昼までとなりました。
実際には、雨がポツリ、ポツリ、降る程度。
今朝はこの夏初、蝉の鳴き声を、そして夜には蛙の鳴き声を聞き、「遂に夏到来かぁ」と実感。

Since I've finished "Birds of Killingworth" and framing, I've been stitching "Bo-Peep" © La-D-Da.
And here it is, I've finished all leaves!! whew... I don't like to stitch leaves much, so now I'm feeling very nice!

All Our Troubles - Finished!!

Hi, friends!
About a week ago, I've finished this "All Our Troubles" © La-D-Da.


While without the berries, I thought that this is a little bit dark design, but when I've stitched red berries, it made this piece more beautiful!

My WIP 10 Nov, 2011

Hi, friends!
Thank you for your comment for the last post!
I'm so happy to receive comments from you all.

Here is my WIP from this month, "All Our Troubles" © La-D-Da.

 
At the moment I can't stitch on small count so I'm stitching on 32ct.
I have so many 40ct linens, so hope I will be able to stitch on 40ct again one day!
