Finished Stitching Mill Hill Azul Calavera

Actually finished a thing for my Mill Hill Mondays stitching this week 🙂

Finished Mill Hill Azul Calavera Cross Stitch Kit Project

At some point I realized I made a tiny mistake, but I made it on both sides of the design, so I totally just flubbed it and stitched around it to make it work 😉 He still needs cut out of the perforated paper, but I couldn’t find my tiny scissors that I use for that step, so he’s waiting in the ‘to be finished fully’ project bin until the next time I work on finishing up some ornaments for display.


I always feel like I stitch slower when I’m stitching in hand instead of using my stand, but these Mill Hill kits are fun and they make me happy so I don’t mind the extra time investment. I got off to a really slow start thanks to some swelling in my hands, but the blue stitches filled in quickly and I just took my time with it.

      Amazon has all six kits: http://amzn.to/29x5mic

      If you’re looking for the individual charms to use in addition to the kit, 123stitch.com might be able to get them if they don’t have them in stock (http://www.123stitch.com/Jewelry_Charms.html)

      You could also try http://www.wichelt.com/millhill.html

      Hope that helps 🙂
