Hi everyone,
Welcome to Miss Turquoise on the left. She is the final doll in this design called Kokeshi Friends by Joan Elliott. This one stitched up really quickly. I made no mistakes for a change.
There’s only one stage left to stitch so the finish line is in sight. Claire is sewing the same design as me and the other ladies in the SAL are all doing different projects.
Please click on the links below to visit everyone else’s blogs and see what they are all up to. You will notice we have a new addition to the group. Her name is Constanze and she lives in Germany.
Claire, Gun, Carole, Wendy, LucyAnn, Kate, Cathy, Jess, Sue, Constanze
Do you have a work in progress that has been pushed to the bottom of your pile of projects? Why not join us? You can do so by sending me an email. The address is at the right hand side of this page.
Our next update will be on 1st May when I hope to have a finished project to show. See you then!

/ April 10, 2016Really lovely. The colours are so gentle but look great. When you first said what you were going to stitch I was unimpressed, however now I see it nearing completion I must admit to being VERY IMPRESSED. I love the little birds sitting beside the ladies. The whole thing does make a lovely picture.

/ April 10, 2016I was happy to stitch this for the SAL because I could see it breaking up into manageable chunks to sew every three weeks. It worked 🙂
