Cross Stitch Elves & Fairies

[bk_forever]

I started stitching these a few years back and recently discovered them again - five were complete, one only needed a bit of back stitch, and the last two hadn't been started, so I thought I'd better finish the set before I got on with anything new. I stitched them on 18 count fabric, instead of the recommended 14 count, which proved really fiddly, but I think the end result makes them worth the effort, eye strain, and headaches... Doubt I'll stitch them again though. @_@

Oh, those are beautiful. What an awesome job you've done, even if they were fiddly!

Aw, they're delightful. I love cross-stitch. I have dozens of unfinished projects. I only ever managed to get one of them properly framed up and hung on the wall. Most are just folded up in a bag away from hungry silverfish. I did cross-stitch for years because it killed a lot of hours before I discovered writing. Now I just don't have enough time for both.

Those are really cute! The worse one I ever did was a sky scene on dark blue. Not something I would ever do again.
