Today, I have small creations to show - some wee bitty cross stitches and more Christmas hats.
I have become utterly addicted to stitching the Sprites made by Missy at Dork Stitch.
See?
This is Flo from Diner Dash.
And this is Haku Yowane from Vocaloid Explosion (about whom I know next to nothing, except that I liked the Sprite XD )
I had two more patterns ready to start stitching when I saw the post she did today... now I have four more patterns ready to start and one already started. They're like Lay's chips or something - can't stitch just one!
Here is my last Bride's Tree SAL ornie done - a very creepy small Santa. He doesn't show up very well, but I needed to stitch him on off-white to make the finishing idea I have in mind work. If it doesn't work, then I'll do... um, something... to make him show up better. He was a freebie, but I forget where I got him.
And here are hats - lots of hats! These are what I was making in the last while when there were no stitching updates.
A black one for a niece:
A red & black for my BIL (yes, it's red, not pink!)
This pic shows its color better - and also why he loved it. (He's a bit odd, so is the hat. He wore it like this for half of the evening)
A soft brown one for another niece:
The smaller Jayne Cobb hat for my sister:
The hat I made myself to wear around on Christmas Day (one of the few things I think 'fun fur' is okay for is hat trim):
The Balaclava I made (and later corrupted the pattern to make Nephew a Ninja hat) for my father, who said his nose hair was freezing when he went outside. We have about 15 inches of snow here today.
I think that might be all the hats I made, but I'm not sure. I have to go back over my lists. I didn't get a good pic of the shawl I made for my Mum, so I'll have to get her to actually pose with it.
I hope to show off a finished Mermaid by tomorrow - that's if I can tear myself away from stitching those addictive, addictive little Sprites!
Oh, thank you very much for stitching those sprites! Both Flo and Haku look so cool- I'll post them tomorrow! I got your comment about the Final Fantasy VIII patterns, and will do one of Irvine (and Selphie to match, they're so cute together! also, I love that game, so possibly just the full cast), but don't know how much time I'll have tomorrow, so I might end up using a placeholder pattern and then going with them for Thursday. Also, don't worry about it! Doing requests for these is really fun, so I don't mind in the slightest. ^^ Plus, it's so cool to see your finished versions!
