Theme-a-licious January Update

Here's the progress I made on the hummingbird cross stitch .... not as much as I thought!  I thought I filled in more leaves, but it doesn't look like it to me.  In addition to the bird, there was some red added to some of the flowers.

I'm not sure what I will work on for Fantastical Fiction February ... this doesn't really fit the theme.  I did want to get back to tatting, and I think I had seen a pattern for a Tardis bookmark - bookmark!  That's got to do with fiction right?!?! Or I have a pattern for a tatted dragon .... hhmmm.

Theme-a-licous 2014 January

This is a humming bird and fuchsia cross stitch that I started over 5 years ago.  We moved 5 years ago and I do remember working on this in the other place we lived ... so other than over five years ... I don't really know how long this one has been going on for.  There's nothing wrong with the left side of the fabric there, its not blue ... that's just a shadow because I am too lazy to set up for a good photo :o)

When we moved, we actually GET hummingbirds in our yard!  They look just like these ones, and aside from the feeder, I also get two fuchsia plants every summer that they frequent by the kitchen.

There's not too much left to finish this one, there's one more bird that I started up the top, so filling in on the flowers, border and then back-stitching.
