A cross stitch finish and beige doily update !!!

I don’t know how I forgot . Today morning, when I was looking through some embellishments , I saw a crochet flower which I made for the center of the beige doily I showed in my previous post . I was astonished how I not noticed such a big mistake . It was the part of pattern. Anyways , maybe I am growing old ;) I added that and have updated my doily pictures in this post .

But first, another cross stitch finish !! :)

This is one of my Turtle Trot SAL projects . Titled as ‘ Drama Queen’, this chart is from the book ‘Smirk attitudes A to Z’ by Kyla May, Leisure Arts publications .

I love those tiny accessories of hers . Aren't those cute ? :) I changed few colors as per my choice . This is made on a 14 count aida fabric using 3 strands of thread. There were too many quarter stitches . The cross stitched portion is 4x6 inches .

And this is my doily ----with the missing flower in the center :) Does it look better now ?

  1. So you've finished Drama Queen!It turned out lovely, and very cheerful, perfect wall decor for a girl's room (are you putting it there?).
    The doily looks much brighter now, the flower adds more beauty :) It will look pretty on your dining table! However, like this you won't be able to put anything on it, I mean in the middle, as the flower is there.
    I am still finishing the blanket.. and also started my cardigan, and hope yarn will suffice.
    Have a nice day!!!

  14. Wow! Drama queen looks very cute. What do you propose to do with the piece? Sigh! cross stitch needs a lotttttt of patience. A friend has gifted a cross stitched frame to my brother. He has hung it in the living room. Its so beautiful! It has atleast 9 flower bunches with a square in the centre with a message.... all cross stitched. Its so lovely!! So is your doily. Great to see your accomplishments..

  20. dear preeti, the doily is gorgeous.. i also hesitate to put a flower in the middle, because if you want to put an object on top, it might loose balance, so usually for doilies i dont put nothing in the middle....
    everything is subject of taste.... big hug
