MS Stitching Update

Hi everyone!  Long time no posting... and long time no MS stitching!  But finally I have something to show you...

I have just looked back over the blog posts and noticed that the last time I posted on this blog was February 2015.... oh my goodness - I am hanging my head in shame!!

So who wants to see what MS stitching I have been doing over the last few months?

First up of course was the "Send a Smile" Exchange that I sent to Angel.  Link to Angel's post is here...

(Unfortunately I am yet to receive my exchange piece that Lentochka sent to me... given the length of time since it was posted I suspect it has been well and truly lost in mail - oh well these things happen)

While I have a couple of MS design in my stitching basket at the moment I haven't been very good at stitching on them....

Update below:

Spring Bouquet - last stitched on in April 2015

Merry Christmas Kitty (free kit) - last stitched on in July 2015

Trio of Christmas Mice (Free Kit) - finished in November 2015 (yippee!!)

As I said, not a lot of MS stitching done this year but at least I do have some finishes!!!  Hopefully next year will be a better year for MS stitching.

Til next time, happy stitching!
Hugs xx

First time

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy :D

I'm really thankful for adding me to this group :)

For the first time I saw Margaret's charts I fell in love with them by all my heart. I especially admire cats so of course when I saw "Calendar cats" I wished to stitch it.

So... in december 2008 I ask few girls from my country (Poland) to stitch it with me as a Round Robin project. At last (after more then 4 years ^^) in last week my very own cat calendar came back to me :)

Every calendar was stitched by 13 girls. Every one of these 13 girls had to stitch caption on her calendar and mail it to the next person :) 

Here are photos of Margaret's cats stitched by me on my 12 friends calendars:

From my other works there is another Margaret's cat. Stitched on a large pinkeep for a friend:

 

And now I want to stitch cooking cats for another friend (he works as a chief in a restaurant ;))

So that's all for now :D I hope you're not sleepy after reading this loooooooong post ^^ I wish everyone good luck with stitching, no broken needles and no knotting your thread :D

Another present in Spring Exchange

Last Saturday, a package arrived in my mailbox from Portugal.  Dear Marcinha , that is so cute! Funny cat on a lavender sachet, and it smells nice.
Thank you dear!

Hugs,  Olga (Olli)

Introduction and my MS finishes

Hello to all Margaret Sherry lovers stitchers!
I'm Veronica (aka Dolci Fusa) from Italy.
I'm a huge fan of this designer, I've also opened a Flickr group to collect all photos concerning her works time ago.
In these years I've stitched many MS characters, let me show them.
The first ones: zodiacal cats, gifted to my dearest friend.

These were for two charity project, a violinist cat...



... and another zodiacal cat (mine!).



A seasonal stitch: it welcomes my guests every Christmas.



A welcome baby with Charlie bear, for my cousin's second born.



To finish with a flourish, and consistent with this peculiar day,
two Valentine's gifts for my fiance: a little and tiny pendant for car stitched 1 over 1...



... and a chocolate box mouse. He loves Margaret Sherry patterns very much too.



I will show you my MS Sport & Hobbies SAL next time, I've stitched eight characters until now.
