Baron and Baroness

Hello everyone,
 
It was a real, real, pleasure to work on this project: nice images, lovely threads, neat charts.
Baron and Baroness: dimensions for each of them 7 x 10cm and 17 colours, each done in one week!
(I had the kit from here )
 
Happy sewing, my friends!

Suzy and Sven

 I've made these a few years ago, year 2002 maybe, when my daughters were toddlers.

I don't have any of these two tapestries now, of course, I have made ​​them a gift to my mother.
She said to me, for her, Suzy and Sven represent me and my brother when we were little kids. But I know now, to her, we will always be little kids...

Cute images, mostly for kids.
Maybe I'll do them again someday...for my daughters.
 
Have a happy needle, my friends!

"Virgin Mary with Child"

Is this the chart I've used! very neat, very easy to follow - a great kit!
They also have nice, beautiful threads, with stable colors; the canvas is very helpful, too, already marked.
I see now, they have the image printed on canvas. This can be easy or not, depends on how fast you can decide what color to use for the points where colors may overlap.

I made the tapestry three times and I was happy to give them all, like presents.

Hello everyone...

 I had ..."this happy needle" for a long time.
....and now, and here, is starting to work.

I used needles for a long time, I really enjoy it!
One of my first project was this:

                "Pansies" after J.C. NERVIER, 13 colors, 20 x13.5 cm.



I finished this tapestry in 1998.
Along with it, I finished "Orchids" after J.C VERGNE, 11 colors, 13.5 x 20cm, but no picture)

They were beautifully framed, hanged on my living room, year after year.

Then, five years ago, I made these as a gift to our dear friends, like a small, thankful, gesture for the help they give us at that time.

I'll try to post in the future, few words and some pictures, with my needlepoint projects, to remember myself  the beautiful time when I was young ...I thought then, that I can and I have time, to make all the projects in the world.

Have a ....happy needle, everyone!
