Sara's stitches

So since I am kinda new I thought I would share with you some of the finished projects I have done. Recently I have finished a lot of gifts. I am a total sucker for those fun little kits you get with the cross stitch magazines and faithfully purchase a new issue every month.

First is the Dr. Who exploding tardis and this is one I am most proud of this was my first sprite stitch pattern by starrley. I happened to stumble upon it one day and thought it was perfect for a friend. I am giving it to him for christmas and I'm pretty sure he is going to cry when he sees it.

Other than these I have done quite a few of those free kits. I am currently working on a feather pillow from an issue of crossstitcher and the sprites from community.

I love the Snowman :) (starts singing Walking in the Air). The lighthouse is also nice, and the Lemon Rant is a classic :)

That lighthouse has completely won my heart! You did such a good job with it! Would you mind sharing where you got the pattern?

Your projects look fantastic! And it's a pretty awesome feeling to see that someone stitched a pattern I made. :grin:

thank you!! the light house was actually a kit i found at the craft store and I will admit this was my first project when I got back into stitching so I left out the rope (mostly because I had counted wrong and it wasn't going to look right) and I liked the way it looked without the backstitching. I am very happy with how it came out even though I didn't follow the pattern towards the end.
