Libellule - The Dragonfly

Evening all!

The new issue of CrossStitcher Magazine went on sale today (the one with my pattern in) which means that I finally get to share it with you properly, hurrah! So for those of you that have not already seen the pattern, may I introduce Libellule - the dragonfly. I hope you will all agree with me that she sure is mighty fine! I have named her Libellule (which is French for dragonfly) because I stitched her under the shade of a tree when I was in the South of France in September and I just think it is such a pretty word.

CrossStitcher made a gold version and they did such a beautiful job, I really am thrilled with it:

         

You can see a preview of my pattern and some of the others in the issue here, and they did a lovely blog post on my work here too.

The issue is on sale now so you can stitch one for your very own - what are you waiting for?!

And if you live in some far flung exotic location and cannot get your hands on a copy, the pattern is now in the shop too.

I hope you like it. I have more to show you soon... I am stitching as fast as I can!

Toodle pip,

Delilah x

How fantastic - I noticed this in the background of your Christmas tree photos. It looks a perfect partner to your lovely Bee, and was hoping you might be going to release it too.
PS: I love your blog and designs, I stop off here when I need a bit of inspirational nourishment.

Thanks for your wonderful comments Jo, they are so lovely to hear.

It really inspires me to keep designing new patterns when I hear from all you sweet folk that enjoy making them, so a big thank you to everybody that takes the time to write to me!

My gold thread and cream farbic have just arrived in the post today, and I can't wait to get started on my golden dragonfly! Thank you so much for designing such lovely, inspirational patterns! I am definitely going to purchase your crown pattern next! ♥
