Let the beading begin


 


I don't like to rest my hands on  finished work so I have started beading the orange in the pumpkin.  I can work the beads in place without touching the stitched area at this point so I will be beading all of the stitched areas before proceeding.

And then a bow!


The bow was interesting.  I stitched it once and ripped it all out!  But now we have a bow!

Number 5--Finished!


So I created a border around the Walnetto.  Then I added the inner four corners with the stitch from Framed Signac.  Then I added gold Kreinik out to the corners to create the eight triangles and filled with a plaited stitch in Pebbly Perle.  Ready for the framing pile.

The last one


The Watercolours outside border and the inner diamond of Kreinik are the base for another ornament....charted from Kick Back and Stitch series of four previous ornaments.  Time to change things up....I don't do repeats of any chart, so......free forming yet stitcking ot the basic concept.  The Walnetto center design is from the Sunset at the Lake chart-also by Kick Back and stitch.
