Fairie Bleu


I have been under the weather all week and not able to finish any of the jobs I had planned for the house. It's very frustrating when my body doesn't cooperate with me. All the willpower in the world doesn't help when you have a fever. So I have been spending many days quiet. I have had a lot of nice long naps. I also have had a lot of bowls of oatmeal. It's amazing how comforting oatmeal can be. It really is a healing food! Today I graduated to oatmeal with bananas, I am moving up in the world!


So since I am being so quiet and not really having energy to do anything much, I picked up this piece I have been working on since October. I haven't really had a chance to work on it lately but I really want to get it done because this will go on the wall in my bedroom. I already have the frame bought!


I really love the delicate feel to it and hope to copy this feel through out the room. I know my kitchen and living room are bright and modern and colorful but that is not the only side of me! I have this bohemian hippy chick side hiding but not for long! Someday I will start working in my bedroom and you will get to see a whole other side of me!

Until then I hope you all have a beautiful rest of the week. Remember the weekend is upon us!

  1. It is going to be gorgeous when you finish it. I have one that I started like 20 years ago and am still working on it. I should probably do something about it. It's a fairy also. Love yours. Cathy

    1. Thanks Cathy, I am really looking forward to the finished piece. It's so delicate! You need to pull yours out and do a bit now and then. It's amazing how quick it goes if you do just a bit here and there.

  2. Diane, I have started cross stitching again after putting it aside years ago. I am enjoying it so much- I was thrilled to see some on your blog. She is breathtaking; I can't wait to see her come to life. :)

    1. I had mine put away for years too, I recently dug it all out and worked on several pieces during Christmas. This is my favorite right now though. The wings are really starting to take shape. I will have to post an update soon :)
