Zelda Update II

Here's a quick Zelda update! Don't have a lot of time to write something nice...am at work...

And here's a close up of her face. I think she has got such a cute face! Think I'll be able to finish her this IHSW.

Anniversary and Zelda Update I

Yesterday and today were amazing! We had a really really nice Japanese dinner and a really really lovely high tea and lots of fun!

B gave me these two books, because we're both Twin Peaks fans and I always wanted to read Laura Palmer's secret diary. The little book lamp I gave B was broken...well, it works, but a small bit broke off, so I bought him a new one.

I didn't have much time to stitch this weekend, so this is a small update. I really like the colour and I really enjoy stitching Zelda! Think I'm going to stich a bit more tonight...although I can't wait to start reading the secret diary and the guide to Twin Peaks!

Better Pictures of Yoshi in Love and Pika on a Cardi

My mum took pictures of my sisters actually wearing the shirt and cardigan I stitched for them and they look so much better than my pictures, so here they are.

You can still see that the fabric is a bit stiff from the plastic stuff that didn't come out entirely. We gave it a wash and now it looks so nice and soft!

New Start

I finished stitching Link, but he looks a bit lonely so yesterday I started stitching Zelda. Zelda has got such a cute face. Didn't have a lot of time to stitch yesterday - had to study for my physiology exam, should do more studying... - , so this is only a small part, but I like that you can see her face. I did make a bit of a stupid mistake which I just discovered...Zelda is a bit higher on the fabric than Link, I really should pay more attention to these kind of things. Anyway, it'll probably be alright when she's finished...I hope...otherwise I need to start over and I wouldn't want that. Her face looks a lot smaller than Link's, but it isn't if you look at the pattern. And I like that Zelda's looking at Link. They're so cute!

Don't know how much I'll get done this weekend since I have a lot of studying to do and I'm going out with my boyfriend, but I'll try to do some stitching anyway.

Happy stitching everyone!

Last Link Update

Woohoo! Link is done! I finished stitching him yesterday evening. Now it's time for the monochrome Zelda pattern - I want to make Zelda before I start the cute Wailmer for Ben.

Start: 29-02-2012

Finish: 08-03-2012

Colour: DMC 3812

I didn't iron the fabric yet, because I'm going to stitch Zelda next to Link on the same fabric, so I'll iron it when I finish stitching Zelda and it'll all look a lot nicer.

This Sunday is our anniversary! I am so looking forward to it, really, I can't wait! B's treating me to a nice Japanese dinner tomorrow evening and I'm treating him to a nice high tea on Sunday afternoon. The little book lamp you see on the picture is my present to B. I didn't want to give him nothing, because I already gave him the towel and the Pokédex (which originally were his anniversary presents) so I bought this. I think it's so cute! Happy stitching everyone!

Unbelievably Cute!

This has absolutely nothing to do with stitching, but I wanted to share it with you anyway. I came across this really really cute cat in a tub - yes, in a tub.
Which reminds me...here's a really awesome blog for cat lovers - you should definetely follow it if you love cats - !

Has anyone read Chi's Sweet Home? If not, you should! Very funny and very cute. Will make a pattern of her and stitch it soon! Oh...I'd love to have a cat...

Link Update II

Yesterday was a great day! The weather was really really nice, so I went over to B's and we walked around for hours, went to Chinatown to eat dim sum - which was the best dim sum EVER - did some shopping and we missed the movie, but that's ok. We'll go see it soon. As I thought, I didn't have much time to stitch this weekend, so here's my - quite small - update.

There's still so much green to be done! Still thinking about what colour Princess Zelda is going to be...

Link and Mudkip Update I

I did loads of stitching the last two days - you'll probably think I don't have a social life, but I do. So this is my sister's progress.

Isn't Mudkip super cute? I think Mudkip's awesome!

And here's my progress. I wonder how long this is going to take to finish it...it doesn't really matter, I'm enjoying stitching Link. When I'm done with Link I'm going to start stitching a Wailmer for B's jacket. He asked me to stitch a small Wailmer for him for on the inside of his jacket, on his inside pocket. Of course I'll do it! And after Wailmer I'll start stitching Zelda, because Zelda is going to be by Link's side. How romantic. What colour should Zelda be? I was thinking purple - also because the pattern is purple - but I'm not sure if purple would be nice next to this green, so I was thinking 'maybe blue'. Don't know if I'm going to be able to do a lot of stitching tomorrow, because B and I are going out for dim sum and a movie, but we'll see.
