backstitching

Well, I've finshed all the cross stitch on the big secret and also all the cross stitch on Voyage on the Sea. Meaning I'm off to backstitch - and both projects have plenty of it. Oh happiness oh joy.

To get some fun stitching in, I've started with this fall alphabeth.



I adore how the smaller leaves come out, but the bigger leaves are a bit strippy. Still, it's fun.

I've also did a quick knit in between, the Narkisa headband from knitty (again ... meaning, I love the stuff they have in knitty). I've did it in red though to match a scarf I've already got. It's to keep my ears nice and warm after swimming ...
