This next picture is of Daffodils from Prairie Schooler's Prairie Garden. You may remember that I changed the threads for this to DMC's Colour Variations to give it a bit of interest. I'm quite pleased with the result and will at some time be making this up into a pin keep for myself.
I've had a couple of questions about the hardanger mat that I sometimes use to photograph small items on. I didn't stitch it, it was designed and stitched for me by my good friend Colette of Col's Creations for Christmas 2005. Colette has now released the chart on her website and it's called "Tulips and Lace". Do go and have a look as there are lots of other lovely designs by Colette for sale there.
Thanks so much for all your lovely comments about the biscornu that I stitched for Mylene in the HoE biscornu exchange. I'm still waiting for mine to arrive, but I think it should be here soon.

This hardangar mat is absolutely beautiful!
I do hardangar, too, so immediately went to her site and saw through her works!
There were plenty of stunning works!
I will absolutely order some stuffs from her site, when I wanted to try hardangar, again!
By the way, your Roses is very lovely! I love this series, too!
LHN is lovely, such pretty colours and your daffodil turned out perfectly, just the right amount of shading in your hoice of thread
Love Rose Cottage & your daffodils, both so pretty. Sorry but I daren't visit Col's site yet: it could get too expensive & I'd end up with too much month left at the end of the money! LOL
Rose is absolutely gorgeous Nicola. I love the colours. The daffodils are really pretty. I love the effect of the Variations.
Loved the Rose Cottage - look forward to seeing the next one! The varigated threads worked well on the PS daffodills.
