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.

Page 15 Finished

March 15, 2012 Nikki

I think I spent more time dreading page 15 of Whispers than it actually took me to stitch it.  Thanks to a couple of days off work I managed to get the page done in six days.  I’m not sure […]

Can’t put it down

Whispers 11th March

My break from Whispers lasted all of two days.  I did get a little done on Couch Dragon but not really enough to be worth a picture yet.  I was just going to grid my page on Whispers ready for […]

Page and Row finish

March 4, 2012 Nikki

Mini Lost in You 13th Feb

The plan was to work on Mini Lost In you this week and I did get a little bit done; almost half a page.  I’ve got a hand appearing and was a little worried that the hand was too white […]

Whispers 12 pages complete

February 3, 2012 Nikki
Whispers 3rd Feb

I’m now ahead of my schedule for the year. Didn’t take me long did it?  I’ve finished page 12 of Whispers which didn’t really take that long at all owing to the blocks of blue in the background.  If you […]

Change of Plans

January 27, 2012 Nikki
Mini Lost In You 27th Jan

My plan to stitch across the pages one section at a time was a spectacular failure, I didn’t even get across three pages before realising it wasn’t going to work.  So it’s all change and I’m back to pages.  But […]

Whispers Background

January 16, 2012 Nikki

Back to stitching Whispers this week and I’m trying out a different way of working my way through the pages.  Just recently I’ve been dividing my pages into strips of roughly thirty rows.  My plan was to stitch two pages […]
