WIPW - Preparing for Hina

Work In Progress Wednesday, here we are again. A week passes so quickly, have I managed to make any progress?

Freeform Embroidery
I added two stitches, both or them were learned years ago in the TAST online course run by Sharon of Pintangle.
The stitches are Detached Buttonhole Stitch, and Barb Stitch.



Tvistsöm Cushion
I have just completed row 32 and will start 33.


Hina Dolls
It is time to add three more Hina Hanging Dolls to the mobile.
If you don't know what I am talking about read about Hina dolls here.

I have picked out the fabric and started making the paper patterns.
Now what will I be making, do you think? The hints are: an autumn plant, the animal of the year and something from the sea.

    Well, I'm certainly intrigued by the way the dolls are going to turn out!

    It is so good to see the Hina models again. If they were mine I would display them permanently- but perhaps annually is better so they are always a delight to the eyes.
    Thank you for resizing them.

    Times does seem to fly these days! The cushion is really coming along nicely.

    Great progress. I always admire your steady progress in each of your project and get it finished. You have reminded me again about my WIP embroidery stitch sampler which I haven't touched this year. Thanks. Waiting to see your dolls.

    I like your freeform embroidery additions, especially the barb stitch, lots of possible uses!
    And time for more Hina dolls, how fun. You have a wonderful collection.

    What a beautiful tradition. I can guess the animal of course and maybe the plant.... but not the item from the sea! Will be fun to see what you create.

    Looking forward to seeing the dolls. Will the animal be a rat?
