Theme-a-licious Check In - Opulent October

 

As I said in my last Theme-a-licious post I didn't have an existing wip that fit this months criteria, so I just had to start something new.  The project I chose was Just Nan's Mermaid Heart - beads, charms, blending filament and luscious silks. Very opulent.

Rosie has already decided that this one is for her, so I need to crack on and get it stitched!

 However my main focus for this month is Juda Hale in Miniature,  I am on track to meet my goal of getting this one stitched by the end of the month.

 And of course I could resist starting Mary's Sampler from Plum Street Samplers.  Here it is with the first two parts stitched.

Your projects all look great, Karoline.

Looks like it won't be much longer until you complete your Juda Hayle sampler.

They're all lovely WIPs - I can see how the Just Nan would appeal to a lovely little girl :-)

AWWWW - your Mary's sampler is so cute. I'm behind as usual but Mary and Joseph is done. Love your JN piece for October, I can see why Rosie claimed it. Glad Juda is on track for an October finish YGG - any knitting ? Take care Mel
