First finish for 2010 & Snapperland

Anne S

Well, I have gone as far as I can with Summer Snapperland – the stitching was completed last night, and now I have to sit and wait for the buttons and snaps to arrive so it can be ‘finish-finished’ … then I will throw it place it gently into the framing pile for a few months time when I can hopefully afford to order some more frames and mattboards 🙂

After I finished the stitching of Summer Snapperland last night, I pulled out a Christmas ornie I started stitching in about November time, and did a couple of stitches in when I was in Auckland at Christmas … I figured enough was enough, time to get it finished, as it’s only a wee thing – and sure enough two episodes of Dawson’s Creek later and it was all finished … FINALLY an actual “finish” for the year 😛

  3. Lovely ornament finish Anne! Your Snapperland turned out cute, I love all the little details.

  11. Lovely finish! I was going to stitch this one up in the summertime to go along with the Winter Snapperland i’m stitching now. I’m not fond of the Spring/Autumn ones though.

  15. Good looking work, Anne! I’m sure it feels really good to get some finishes under your belt so early into 2010. Congrats!

  18. Anne, it’s so good to be in touch with you again. I love your Summer SNapperland, which I have in my stash (along with winter, spring, and fall – none even started)! You really have made it look extra special, and the fabric is gorgeous with it!

    I also love the JBW ornament. I love everything they design, but you’ve always made everything look better than the models.

  21. Oh my! That snapperland is beautiful! I’m going to have to get that one myself – it’s got my favorite theme! Congratulations on your finish!
