Needleworker

Laissons un peu le bleu de côté =)
Place au marron et aux couleurs d'automne !
Je suis une fan du violet mais les couleurs d'automne ... j'aime aussi
Il y a quelques temps j'ai commandé le kit 'Needleworker' de chez Little House Needleworks .
ça ne ressemble pas trop à ce que j'ai l’habitude de faire mais j'ai craqué, et puis commander aux
États Unis revient carrément moins cher !


Mise à part un cadre...rien n'est apparu comme une évidence pour terminer cette pièce !
Sauf...peut être....oui...biensur =D
Bien entendu l'aide de Super Moitié a, une fois de plus, été plus que nécessaire !
Mais d'abord un peu de tissu, du ruban et une des épingles que Giovanna m'avait offertes pour pour anniversaire pour terminer la chose....
Mais quelle est donc cette chose ? =)
Un peu de médium, de la colle...et surtout une plaque magnétique pour me faire le plus beau des tableaux à aimants pour le petit repère broderie, couture, craft...que j'ai réussi à m'aménager à l'étage =D


J'adore !
Pratique, beau et surtout très pratique mais aussi très beau ... j'adore
La photo est un peu plus bas, je voulais ménager le suspens pour la partie en anglais
Une des plus belles finitions de cette année et pour moi =D
A très vite pour la suite , je n'ai pas encore montré ce que j'avais fait (et surtout reçu !) pour l'échange d'été du groupe des fans de Margaret Sherry
Bon weekend
xxxx


Let blue things apart for a while =)
Move on to Autumn colours for this post, because even if I'm a great fan of all kind of purples, I also love autumnal colours, as Autumn is my favourite season =)
Some weeks ago I ordered in the US (because it's very hard to find those kind of charts here in France and also because it's really cheaper !) the kit Needleworker by LHN.
My discovery and felt in love with LHN !
I'm now stitching some other designs by LHN but one thing after the other...

Unless framing it, nothing else was evident to finish this piece ... 
Except...maybe....yes....it's obvious =D
Of course Super Hubby's help has been more than necessary for this finish !!!
Thank you again Honey, I'm totally in love with what you did, you know it  =D
But first some fabric, ribbon and one of the pins Giovanna offered me for my birthday to finish the thing....




But what is the thing hahaha =D
Some plywood, glue, and most of all .... a magnetic sheet to make me the most beautiful magnetic board for my craft corner =)
Voilà...


(Nia, Mii... I know... I have a beautiful magnet hehehe =D) 
I'm totally in love with it ! Really
Useful, beautiful (at least I find it's beautiful) , very useful and of course very beautiful ... 
I L-O-V-E
I think that it's one of our masterpieces this year and ...it's for me wooooooo =D
I'll be back very soon, I still haven't spoken about our MS summer exchange... I even think my piece has not been showed on the MS lovers blog... I'll change this next week =)
Have a great weekend
xxxx

      Thank you June =)
      My first stitching with Crescent threads... I enjoyed but find it looks like a bit to wool...
      anyway I love the result =)
      Hubby found everything (except the fabric of course =D) in a hardware shop (DIY Shop)
      after the pic he made me magnets with 2 big buttons I loved =)
      I'm so lucky !
      have a great weekend

      thank you so very much sweetie =)
      Our team had another great idea indeed hehehe =D
      Next finishes are more simple...we have to rest a little
      The magnetic board in our office (which also comes from Ikea) is put to shame also =D
      I'm so in love with this finish
      have a great weekend too...gardening for us =)

      Hubby and I are a good team, I'm the brain he is the hands hehehehe...no he sometimes is the brain too =)
      it seems that I'm collecting LHN charts too those days ! I bought some and only stitched 2...
      But I succeeded in selling them on Ebay after I stitched them, great, I can buy new one now =D
      Tilly the snail...will be part of my next post hehehe, it's a gift I received with other wonderful goodies !

    That IS a master piece! Such a wonderful and creative way to finish this beautiful LHN piece AND creative something functional for your crafty room!

    I'm a LHN lover too! Hooked on them now! One of my favourite stitches is called Old Nantucket (I just finished it). You should have a look at it and perhaps you'll like it too!

      I'm stitching the 12 sheep virtues and just sewed a Xmas piece (cardinal winter) , I can say I love =D
      this magnetic board is one of our masterpieces this year hehehe, I have to show Clair de Lune very soon....

      ho my, thank you so very much for your very kind comment sweetie =D
      you really make me blush
      you're right, it's really perfect in my craft corner and I can't stop watching at it each time I go by !
      this year...I spoil myself hehehe =D
      As I said in my previous answers...next finishes are really more simple.
      We have to find new ideas...but this one...we are very proud of =D
      When you want Hubby can tell you how he did it, you really need one in your craftroom , it's essential =)
      did you recognise the card on it ? =D
      since the pic I found another gorjuss magnet and hubby did me 2 with 2 big buttons I love very much
      it's so easy to make our own magnets =)
      thank you again for your kind words Petite Anne

    I love this idea and the design you stitched is perfect for a pin up board. I haven't stitched any LHN designs but I have seen them around and I must admit this is one of my favourites :)
