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.

Whispers 10th October

Sewing time again and I’m still sticking with Whispers.  Page 34 of 56 done now so still a long way to go but the next page will mean the end of a row. There’s something about filling in around a […]

Last week I did a craft lesson at Sir Stampalot (I may not have a local stitching shop but I do have a local craft shop) and made this little lovely.   I really like this stamp, she’s nice and […]

Whispers Fiddly Flowers

Whispers 24th September

I’ve been looking forward to getting started on the dress of Whispers I think I had this strange idea that it would be really simple and I’d breeze through it in no time.  Well I forgot about the flowers didn’t […]

Something a little different now, I’ve had a bit of a reorganisation of the blog to tidy up the top menu a little.  When you go into the Cross Stitching drop down it will just show the pieces that are […]

Authur complete 06092014

My second finish of the year.  QS Arthur is finished at last. The last page was very small so it seemed more sensible to work pages 8 and 9 together and get him finished.  My first finish done in half […]

Almost Caught Up

Whispers 25th August

Finally a post to get everything caught up with where I am with my sewing at the moment.  Another page done on Whispers means that I’m through those two pages of background which were keeping me from getting to the […]

QS Arthur 14th August

After the missing picture it’s time for an update on QS Arthur.  I had finished page 6 but somehow not got around to taking a photograph before starting page 7.  So here is a picture with pages 6 and 7 […]

Change of focus

Whispers 7th August

I was going to do an Arthur update but I don’t seem to have taken a picture when I finished page 6.  So I’ll show you a picture of page 6 and 7 once I’ve caught up with the blogging. […]

Now Where Was I?

Alice Loge 19th July

I was going to update with a new picture of Arthur that I’d taken last week only to realise that I haven’t updated my Alice picture.  As Alice was done first I’ll do a little catch up on her first. […]
