I promised you a new tiny needle project, and here it is…
I’ve had this pattern book since the early ’90s. There are six different patterns in it… and over two decades ago, I made the Fairy Godmother for Samantha when she was pregnant with her first child.
But I’ve always wanted to make myself the the Forest Fairie – the one there on the cover. No better time than now.
I picked up this pretty dyed aida at Michaels. It doesn’t show here but there’s a fair amount of green mixed in with the blue. It’s 14 ct, which feels a little weird for me as most of my projects lately have been much smaller at 18 ct.
I only got a very small start on it. But a start is a start!

That’s going to be lovely! We’re having a Fairy festival again down here later in the month. I saw the billboards for it and had to look it up. It seems you dress like a fairy and walk through the gardens admiring the little fairy homes they have set up. It’s a shame it’s always on the same weekend as the MDSW. It looks like fun.

It is going to be beautiful. I can only do 11 and 14 ct now. I just can’t see the smaller squares, even with magnification. Fairies are so sweet. Our little Baby “J” loves them.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
