I've been busy

Hi all

Well I've been busy lately and have a few finishes to share amongst other thing!

A couple of weekends ago I caught up with a good friend who is also a stitching buddy from Scotland who's in Australia visiting her family. We didn't get to go to any LNS's as they were all closed, so decided to find some antique shops instead! I managed to pick up this great "flower frog"for my scissors, actually my friend purchased it for me as a really early Christmas present! Here's a pic with my latest 2 scissor purchases!
Here's a closer pic of just the flower frog

The finishing has been done on this too, pic below. It's for an exchange and I love it so will definitely be stitching it again for me!The Sweetheart Tree - Holly ornament (2009 JCS ornament issue)

Awesome finishes - love them all :D Funnily enough, I bought a little flower frog off Ebay a couple of weeks ago too ... I just need to find something nice to sit it in :) Looking forward to see what you decide to stitch on next :)
