January challenge, frogs and bracelets

Its reveal day for the Jayne's Attic January Challenge. The challenge this time was our own choice of free designs from Papillon Creations. I chose "Moonlight Serenade", and stitched it on 28ct Misty Blue fabric using House of Embroidery threads in Verdon, and finished it as an octagonal pinkeep. The other finishes are shown in the album here. Once again, some lovely stitching by everyone involved.

The frogs in the title of this post are not the stitching variety, but the amphibious kind, who have noticed that the weather has warmed up, and become very twitterpated (If you don't know that word, you haven't seen "Bambi"), as evidenced by the fact that, for reasons known only to themselves, they have decided to build a small spawn-replica of The Eden Project in the garden pond. Compare and contrast the following:-

And finally to the bracelets. I just finished making these "Bella's Bracelets" for the girls (I had to use tibetan silver wolves as I couldn't find any wooden ones), they will be the envy of every other teenage vampire groupie in Cornwall ;D
