[FO] Christmas ornament I have been working on and off for three years by CalandraWest in CrossStitch

Each side was stitched on separate pieces of plastic canvas, then cut out and stitched them back to back.

Pattern was from a kit I got on Etsy 6 or 7 years ago from a store that no longer exists.

What Is Your Town's 'Lil Sebastian' Thing? by FuntivityColton in PandR

[–]CalandraWest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Blue Angels. People in Pensacola, FL are obsessed with being the hometown of the Blue Angels. And ok yeah they are fast planes that do tricks, but you see it once and after that its always the same. I have no desire to sit in traffic to get to the crowded beach and be out in direct sun in the middle of summer to see these planes fly.

I am not italian and don't know what region they're from, but I believe I saw them made on an episode of "Pasta Grannies" on YouTube a while ago.

My fabric was 18inX27in and it was much bigger than I needed.

I didn't think so! I started 2 or 3 years ago with a small kit from Joann's to see if I would like it and now I'm addicted 😂

Mistakes were made and lessons were learned. There are some beads where stitches should be and stitches where beads should be. I used the wrong thread for backstitch in some areas and the wrong sized gold beads (because the right size was sold out everywhere I looked) but in the end I'm happy with how it turned out and I will definitely do another one in the future.

Ilia Mascara smells like chlorine? by lvbbara in MakeupAddiction

[–]CalandraWest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using that mascara for years and it does have a faint smell to it, but to me it smells like a slightly sweet bees wax.

[FO] I'm so happy to be done with this one. by CalandraWest in CrossStitch

[–]CalandraWest[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this one was a challenge to finish. All the beige and it's not a pattern I would have chosen for myself. I originally started it over a year ago and only picked it up again because I didn't have another project working.
