I know I've been an awful blogger lately. I've had so much going on and not many photos to share of stitching. I picked up a couple of pieces from my wonderful framer on Friday, though.
So let me present, Halloween Fairy (in plenty of time for Halloween!)
And Petal Fairy:
I'm giving Petal Fairy to my mum, as a thank you for all her help over the summer months with my business. I don't know what I'd have done without her!
A note on the framing: I was charged a total of £30 for *both* frames. That's the cheapest yet! I was actually quoted £14 for HF and £23 for PF... and he ended up taking £7 off that when I went to pick them up. Do I have the best framer in the world or what?
I hope to have a bit more Internet time this week... so that I can catch up with my blog reading for one thing. Though what is UP with blogger?! I can't see who's updated their blogs recently or anything.

They both look great! Nice choices of frames :) I took 4 pieces to my framer last week...one of those is my moms xmas gift :) I can't wait to get them back!
I switched from blogrolling to google reader last week and love it so far. I was missing all the updates and just don't have time to go from blog to blog looking for new posts :)
Have a great day!

Beautiful Tina! Fantastic framing!
Both fairies are beautiful, Tina. You do such nice work and I love the frames. You got such a deal if my conversion from USD is correct. Your mom will adore the Petal Fairy.
The framing is as beautiful as your stitching! Very nice choice of frame styles, too.
Your pictures look amazing and your framer - well - if he ever moves, follow him!! What amazing prices.
Wow, they are both gorgeous! If you need somewhere to "store" your Halloween Fairy, I have plenty of wall space, lol.
Lucky girl to have a great framer that is inexpensive!! WOW!

I don't know how I missed this post! I will have to blame Blogrolling!!! Wow, both of your framed finishes are simply stunning!! Congratulations! Isn't it just wonderful to have new framed cross stitch to hang on your walls??
Tina - are those both on Silkweaver fabrics?? If so, you should enter them in their current contest! They look like winners to me!
Both of your fairies look wonderful! I love Mirabilia's fairies. I finished my Midsummer Night's Fairy today!
