Needleroll Bonanza!

After what seems like a long drought of stitching related posts around here, I have a visual feast for you.
First up, the beautiful needleroll I received from Colette. Colette designed and stitched the needleroll, her first, especially for me! She stitched a wonderful matching card for me also. I feel very honoured to have such a lovely gift made with such care. The sentiment reads 'Live, Laugh, Stitch'. Very apt!
Next up, my gift to Chris, a Victoria Sampler needleroll from one of the limited edition kits from last year. I had intended to design my own piece, but then prudence got the better of me and I thought I should use what I had in my stash instead. I loved stitching this, I always love VS designs and it was a pleasure to give it to Chris. Check out her blog for the needleroll she sent to Annie!She will release this as a chart sometime in the future. Here's the Aion Designs needleroll that I stitched previously. It was so beautifully charted and had such great diagrams that it was a pleasure to stitch. The sentiment on the needleroll was so nice too.
Remember, you can buy any of Chris' designs directly from her at Aion Designs. She also has a very useful directory of all kinds of interesting stuff, like conversion charts, where to buy things etc. Go and look!
I am stitching, but most of it is for exchanges so I can't share anything just yet. In the meantime, go and take a look at all of Andrea's needlerolls!
If you need a bigger needleroll fix go look on Flickr.
Now, if only everyone could upload pictures of all their needlerolls to flickr and tag them ...

Hi Ash, I had a good look at Colette's NR in the flesh before she made it up and sent it to you. It's wonderful, isn't it? Your photos are always so beautiful too, I enjoy them so much. :)
Thanks for your nice comments on my blog and on here, I think I'm blushing now... to anyone else reading, I didn't pay Ash to say any of this, honest! LOL!
Happy stitching, Chris x x
Wow Ash they are lovely. I am thinking of doing some but need some practice first.
Hugs xxxxxx
WOW! Such detailed work. Those are beautiful!
Please visit my blog!
Ooh both needle rolls are gorgeous. :))
Lovely needlerolls! I love the little bowl with your stitched pieces in!


Wow! What a feast for the eyes. I don't know which of the two I like better - they're both exquisite. And oh, those colours!
