Happy Dance! - Happy Happy Bunny Day

 

Design: Happy Happy Bunny Day

Designer: The Trilogy

Threads: Various - DMC, GAST, House of Embroidery

Fabric: 14 count aida, tea dyed by me

It feels a bit of a con calling this a happy dance, as to be honest, it only needed the buttons sewing on - but hey, it was in my UFO pile, so I'm counting it!

I loved this design, but I made a few alterations to make it my own, including changing some of the coloured letters in the alphabet to highlight my initials. The buttons came from my stash and although they don't quite match the pink enough for my obsessive little self, they'll do!

Ooops, I've just noticed I've still not stitched on the pink buttons for 'flowers' ...

This happy little bunny had some modifications made in terms of colours, and I picked out my initials in pink to personalise it - I was pleased with how that looked and I'll probably do something similar with Trilogy/Heart in Hand/Bent Creek charts with alphabets in future :o) The fabric is a 'one off' too - some boring cream aida in my stash got the tea treatment. Unlike others, I don't bake mine in the oven, but I 'set' the colour with a hot iron, and hope that the piece doesn't need washing!

I still haven't decided how to finish this (which is probably part of why the buttons haven't been added!) but I'm leaning towards a pillow, it's a little large for a pin keep :o)

Bee Treat - The Trilogy

This has been languishing for a year or so on my "finished but not quite pile" as I was waiting to get some bee charms of a suitable size. Once I had them, it was the work of ...ooh...minutes... to get this finally to the framing stage - and I have even framed it in a lovely frame bought in a charity shop :o)

I can't find the chart at the moment, so design details will be put in later!
