Had a bit more stitching time than usual recently and it’s showing in Faces of Faery 70. I managed to get page 4 finished in a week. I was hoping that it wouldn’t take too long as it’s a partial […]
Frogging, something you’ll often hear stitchers talking about often in dark mutterings. The Frog is the last thing stitchers want visiting them and it visited me the other week. Frogging is the name given to unpicking your stitches, there’s a […]
