Here is my TUSAL jar with two current projects:
What's that you say?
The borders on Dracula have joined up?
Does that mean a finish?
It most certainly does!
This is Dracula by Dam Good Crafts (chart no longer available)
stitched on 32 count Amortentia from Chromatic Alchemy
The fabric was a gift from Tiffany and looks absolutely stunning with the solid black stitching. I plan to photocopy the finished piece and make that into a book cover as I did with Book of Spells. Then I will frame the original piece.
The other piece in the photo is my Chatelaine, Gardens of London:
stitched on 32 count Cotton Clouds Belfast by Crafty Kitten
Making nice progress going round and round with various shades of green!
Finally, the Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop was a great success, I believe everyone now knows who their Secret Stitching Sweetheart is and hopefully has some new friends. Here are the collages of the designs sent in, some absolutely gorgeous stitching and a cute dragon too!
Don't forget to leave a comment on the original post if you want to be included in the Five Hops Challenge this year.

Dracula looks fabulous and I love the idea of using a picture of the finished stitchery on a book cover! Your Chatelaine is coming along nicely - this one's going to be great fun to watch!
Congrats on the finish it is just a beautiful piece and that fabric really does make the black pop, the Chatelaine piece is stunning and nice batch of orts too.
Dracula is a wonderful project! It looks just perfect with that linen. I would love to see how you use the photo copy as a book cover!
Lovely ORTs Jo! Cute jar too. Borders always give me a good scare.
You KNOW I'm always in for the easter blog hop..EVERY YEAR..I'm so excited! Five Hops Challenge is a cute name :D
Dracula looks stunning on this fabric. x
Congrats on the wonderful finish! The fabric is perfect for the design. Does photocopy give the same color results? because usually the colors get more darkened in a photocopy.
The Dracula design is ideal on that fabric. I like your idea of photocopying it to make a book cover. The collage of the Secret Stitching Sweetheart makes you realise how varied everyone's work is.
Love your Dracula finish and that fabric is perfect.
