IHSW: Angyalok a vonaton / Angels on the train

Végetért az év utolsó IHSW hétvégéje, és annak ellenére, hogy a vonatomat akartam folytatni, a karácsonyi angyalkák mégis belopakodtak a kezembe. Ez a kis kép a Victoria Sampler Heirloom Nativity Samplerének teteje, amit véletlenül rossz anyagon kezdtem el (mármint a csomagban összekeverték a rendelésem, és más színű anyagot kaptam, mint kértem, és ez nem volt az igazi). Hogy ne vesszen kárba, befejeztem a zárómintát és egy mini karácsonyi ajándék lett belőle édesanyámnak, aki már hónapok óta el-elejti hogy milyen jól mutatnának nála is az angyalkák. A legnagyobb különlegesség, hogy én kereteztem, az első ilyen próbálkozásom!

End of the last IHSW weekend of the year. Althought I was planning to continue my train, little Christmas Cherubs were slipping into my hands. The picture is the top of Victoria Sampler's Heirloom Nativity Sampler, what  had started a few months back on a wrong fabric (meaning the my order was mixed up and I got a different one from the shop, and I did not like the result). To save the day I finished the top patterns and I made a little gift for my Mum, who is making me little remarks about how nice it would be to have some cherubs under the tree...And this is the first time that I did the framing myself!

Anyag / Fabric : 28 ct unknown Zweigart
Fonal / Floss : selyem, a mintaív szerint / silk as in the kit
Keret/ frame: saját /own

Azért egy picit a vonatom is haladt, ha nem is sokat, a sütik feletti házikó az eredmény.

Well, my train was moving on a little, if not much, the house over the cookies is the result.
