I finished chelleyf's towel and I'll be shipping it out tomorrow.

I've always wanted to do this pattern. I think its adorable. I made the kitty look like my cutie pie Mojo although he wouldn't be caught dead in that hat.

His pic for reference.


And the towel.

Your towel is HUGE chelleyf but it was great to stitch on. Loved it!

I've already picked out the pattern I'm going to use for Bee's towel. I'll transfer it and work on the towel tomorrow after work. Wink

I sent out a day late as I fell asleep on the couch yesterday and didn't get much of anything done so I sent out early this morning. Here are some pics.

I didn't have time to sew on the belt nor the the Tea Towel Tour 3 so I sent what I had done. I think this works out best though as I've decided to stitch the TTT3 on the belt itself. Should look nice. I also forgot to account for the pleats I wanted so the frill, or whatever,  is a little off.



Oh yeah...you know I had to do one of these cutie pockets!


And once again, terrible shots of the stitching...




This baby wrinkles like nothing else! Oh yeah, if someone along the rotation could throw this beast in the wash that would be great. I didn't have time and it needs it!

Thanks a bunch!

23  English Garden Ribbon Embroidery in Needlework: Completed Projects by doo_leroux on: February 17, 2008 04:28:54 PM
This was for my mother in law for this past X-mas but I couldn't find the right matte for the frame so the embroidery wouldn't get crushed once the glass went in...ya know? Anyhoo, I found one and she'll get it this weekend. My camera is no good at taking closeups unfortunately so bear with me.







Thanks for looking!

24  Framed Wild Tigers Cross-stitch in Needlework: Completed Projects by doo_leroux on: February 17, 2008 04:23:00 PM
This was done over the span of two years but one year I barely touched it as I was doing all my wedding crafts. I'm so glad to finally have it done and beautifully framed at that (not by me of course I got the pros to do that!).









The glass is so nice in real life. You can't even tell its there!

Thanks for looking!

26  Re: Tea Towel Tour 3 [SIGNUPS FEB 8 - FEB 20 FIRST MAIL OUT - FEB 26] in ARCHIVE OF SWAPS THAT ARE TOTALLY FINISHED by doo_leroux on: February 10, 2008 08:14:16 AM
Thanks Amy! You know I'm a fan of your work too. Especially your mad satin stitch skills! My previously hectic schedule has pretty much been wiped clean for awhile so I'll have lots of time for this so I'm in BABY!!!  I'd like to do an apron too but I don't think I"ll be able to whip one out in time. I'll just have another napkin to add to my wall.

Retangel's contribution from TTT1 as my towel skipped her. My wedding date!


My awesome towel from Tea Towel Tour 2

Can't wait for the 3rd round!

This looks like it'll be a great swap. Alas, I've never crafted for a pet before so I'm not sure I could do anything any good. I also JUST started sewing so I won't be able to whip up a cute dress for a dog or anything. I also refuse to give away anything I wouldn't like myself so I'm so hesitant to join. Sad

Here are my baby boys MacGyver (chocolate point) and Mojo (flame point) anyways. They are both Siamese.

My mom LOVES butterflies so I got this beautiful flower vase and etched these butterflies all over it. I'll also get her a nice bouquet to go with it.





Thanks for looking and Happy Holidays!!! Wink
