Lavender and Lace Celtic Bride


My own conversion of Celtic Christmas as a bride for a friend's wedding.
The rose bouquet was freestyled using roses from Sleeping Beauty.

Lavender & Lace Angelica


Stitched in 2000 when my Nana was in hospital then residential care.
I was stitching this on the day she passed away, literally beside her bed stitching.
I'm not sure when I finished her but the 8th August is Nana's Birthday. 


Stitched on 28 count evenweave mostly over 2 but her skin is over 1.
My second experience of over 1, her face and neck took all of the four day Easter weekend.

Never again!
