Done, last weekend. I've used some DMC jewel Effect #E135 on some swirlies on the cupcakes and the letter V, DS's initial replacing the O for October, the camera did not captured that little glittering effect . Next, I think I will start the September cake, that will be for me..LOL
The only progress done is the umbrella for Rainfell. My gift for Dawn on her Birthday.
On my last trip to Thailand, I got Dawn a Black-Tee with a picture of the working elephant that was in one of my February posting. I only got around to mail it to Dawn the weekend of Week 8 together with her Birthday gift. Am killing two birds with one stone.
I sent Dawn an Etui box in Dawn's favourite color complete with a pumpkin pincushion made by a very talented lady locally sometime back. I did not personally handmade my gift this time cos' I had a little accident with my ring finger a couple of weeks ago, almost chopped off a piece of my nail and sliced the skin beneath that nail off...almost, but it was still intact. So that cracked nail had to be carefully removed

So that cracked nail had to be carefully removedto encourage a faster recovery and nail growth. I can still stitch with aid of a hoop or scroll frame, in case
you wondered how I had stitched, and not forgetting with a finger 'pointing' all the time...lol. I was worried it would not heal in time to work my gift for Dawn.
I managed this little fob the moment the bandage got removed after about 10 days.

So sorry to hear about your finger. Glad you were still able to stitch a little bit with it like that. Love all your stitching especially the October cake by Brook. Can't wait to see your September one.
Hey, I was on your wishlist, but I couldn't figure out where to leave a comment -I can imagine, if I would do stitching, the apple and the strawberry is so delightful!!
so, are you from Thailand? I was born in Indonesia, so I'm half Indo. Here in California they often think I'm Mexican (except for the Mexicans :) ).
