Valentine Fairy

I have been working on a new fairy from Nora Corbet's special collection of holiday fairies for my cousin Lee's shop (Unique Lee Yours in Grants Pass, OR). She is coming along nicely and I hope to be able to mail her off by Valentine's Day.

These fairies have been so fun to work on and turn out so beautifully! The added bonus is they work up very quickly. The main reason is that they are done in stunning hand dyed threads so there are few color changes. Ms. Corbet has been able to keep the style and grace of her designs but has made them approachable for the busiest of stitcher or even someone just starting out.

This is an in progress picture of this lovely and fun piece.

I have also completed the Halloween fairy which can be seen in

a previous post.
