Butterfly Alphabet SAL

Posted on March 30, 2025 by craftycreeky

Where did the last three weeks go, probably in a blur of wall paper stripping and now painting! I have made a bit of progress, but not a lot!

Happy Mothers Day to mums all over the world, I’ve spent today with my daughter…painting…walls, not pretty watercolours 🙂

Three weeks ago I was embroidering the letter E…

Well the letter E is now finished and I’m half way through F, so not a lot of progress, but I’ll get there one stitch at a time!

I’ve been spending what stitching time I have mainly making things for Otley Show which is in May. This year for the first time they have a needlework class and the cross-stitch class doesn’t have any limitations on it, so I’m entering lots of things most of which I haven’t finished yet. I’ll try and share some of my things this week.

After the show life should have settled down a bit so I’ll have more time for stitching…hopefully!

About craftycreeky

I live in a busy market town in Yorkshire with my husband, kids, dogs and chickens. I love trying new crafts, rediscovering old ones, gardening, walking...anything creative really I started this blog after my New Year resolution worked so well. My resolution (the first one I've ever kept!) was to post a photograph of my garden on Facebook every day. My hope was that I would then see what was good in the garden and not just weeds and work, which was my tendency. The unexpected side-effect was that I have enjoyed many more hours in the garden. I am hoping that 'The Crafty Creek' will have the same effect. Happy creating!

    Lovely letters! I enjoy decorating but not the preparation or clearing up afterwards.

    You have made great progress despite the building/decorating work going on.
