About Nikki

A crafter of many years, now using this blog to share my ongoing projects and tips for others to enjoy. I mainly concentrate now on Heaven and Earth cross stitch designs - with several projects on the go at any one time. Also often found knitting shawls and socks, papercrafting. Easily distracted by new cross stitch patterns. Slave to a tyrannical black n white cat called Yuen.

Mind the Fairy

June 5, 2010 Nikki

Sometimes it seems that the less time that I feel I have to stitch the more I actually get done.  I think it could be the design though.  This week was a week for Faces of Faery 70 which has […]

Late Update

June 1, 2010 Nikki

It’s been another of those interrupted weeks of stitching.  I’m not sure where the time has gone but there doesn’t seem to have been enough of it for sitting down and doing stitching.  I did manage to finish another column […]

Back to the Train

May 22, 2010 Nikki

It’s been a couple of weeks since I picked up the train, mostly because I was weak and started Faces of Faery after finishing the sunflowers, so it’s been nice to spend a week on it again.  I think I […]

Giving in

May 14, 2010 Nikki

Last week I finished sunkissed and the sensible thing to do would have been to concentrate on Train of Dreams and the quick stitch of Fairy Tales.  Instead I gave in and started Faces of Faery 70, another Heaven and […]

Finished

May 5, 2010 Nikki

I knew it wouldn’t take long to finish Sunkissed but I didn’t think it would be that quick.  The last stitches went in last night and were completed well before midnight before taking a couple of quick pictures of it.  […]

Trains and Gardens

I spent another week on the train this week, not a full week but I still had the time to get loads done.  The other half had been away for a couple of days the previous weekend and grumpy cat […]

Train Progress

April 23, 2010 Nikki

Had a week off work this week.  Not to go anywhere just to have a week away from work, time to relax and get on with the things I enjoy.  So most of the week has been spent with my […]

Spring is here

April 16, 2010 Nikki

I’ve been enjoying catching up on Fairy Tales this week I finished page 4 and got onto page 5 which means I’m now about 45% of the way through.  There’s a lot more of her hair on this page though […]

Juggling Time

Sunkissed 9th April

Bit of a later update than usual and I’m showing progress on Sunkissed that I only worked Monday to Friday last week.  It’s getting there now, decided to work up the right hand side and get onto that last sunflower, […]
