"Be Mine" pincushion & abc WIP!

Back to freebies!!! When i've seen this one i had to stitch it, think it will go nicely with the Valentine freebie that was finished earlier. Isn't it lovely!
You can find the free chart here. Thanks so much Tanya for sharing this lovely chart. I've used one of the GAST thread but can't remember the name of it right now.

As it's the end of the month, time to share the first part of the Rose Alphabet i am doing with Tinna. The leaves took lots of time thought i am not going to make the first part for this month but glad it's done! For February, i'll move on to the lower left side, looks like it is not so much to do. I am kind of glad as hubby will be home third week of february. He's away for 5 weeks this time instead of 4 weeks.

On one of the yahoo groups(I Love Cross Stitching) i am in, we are doing an ornament SAL every month. At the end of each month a winner will be pick out and will receive a small prize from me. Something that is already completed like a scissor fob, floss ring tag....Here's a couple of biscornu scissor fobs i've just completed so the first winner this month can choose which one she would like. The dark pink one is a freebie from "The Floss Box" but the green one is also a freebie but just can't remember anymore where i've found it.

Your visit and nice comments are very much appreciated! Thank you so much!!!
