Something Completely Different

My friend, Shannon, has been telling me for years that she would like an angel because she saw my L&L angels hanging in my house. I finally told her I would stitch her one this year. I told her to look on the L&L and Mirabilia sites. Well, she chose Titania, Queen of the Fairies. I had actually already stitched this one except for the wings and leaves. I told her I would finish it up and give it to her hopefully for her birthday in September. I got her back out last night and started on the leaves.

There are a lot of color changes in the those leaves, but it wasn't too bad. I plan to stitch this at least one day a week to get it done by September. I'm going to get back to Kind Fond Love today. Write soon!

    As always, your stitching is breathtaking. I am sure your friend is going to love the design when it is finished and framed!

  18. Hi Nicole,

    I love the fabric you chose for Titania! Can you recall what fabby it is? I've got this chart, and seeing yours has spurred me into action to get my hand on some of the same linen you used for yours.

    You are such a sweetie for finishing her for your friend.

    I hope you get to feeling better really soon.

    Best Wishes,
    Rebekka
