This is indeed a mystery...
At the end of last year I signed up for a mystery on a french blog. I don't speak a word of French - never had a single lesson. The designer Anne Marie has been sending out charts bit by bit each week or so and I have been steadily collecting them. Yesterday we all got an email marked "important" so I used babelfish to translate and the jist of it was that if you haven't sent your photos of your stitching you won't get the finishing instructions!!!! Oh heck thinks I and begin this mystery which is indeed a mystery as I haven't the foggiest idea what it will turn into. I only hope I am understanding the instructions correctly and am stitching it right. So yesterday I stitched up part one.

Now someone was thinking. What a great way to ensure that you actually do the mystery! Look forward to seeing what you end up with
ReplyDeleteIts looking good, cant wait to see more and of course the finished item. Maybe an etui box???
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Can't wait to see more of this!
ReplyDeleteGood luck getting it done it time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a mystery! Good luck on finishing it.
ReplyDeleteA very good start, looking forward to see more...
ReplyDeleteYou're off to a great start on something! ;) We're not sure what, but it sure is pretty, LOL! I've always found that the babelfish translator thing comes out with the wackiest stuff... I remember doing one for the Marquoir de Justine and it said something like 'you will die if you don't eat chocolate'. I'm not kidding. Anyway, I think your stitching is wonderful and I'll enjoy watching the mystery unfold!
ReplyDeletei have two friend that be doing this MSAL (zury, carpacar) and is beuatiful,but a mystery.
ReplyDeleteThat looks very pretty Hazel. How big are the pieces? I was wondering if it might be some sort of stitching case.
ReplyDeleteSweetie that will be some quick stitching
ReplyDeleteErm... if the chart is in French, then I guess the finishing instructions are in French too?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, your mysterious work looks gorgeous! I wonder you have time to stitch with all the wonderful work you do for the Bea SAL!
Intriguing. Can't wait for more progress.
ReplyDeleteHazel, I have that translation issue with the French designs and sites, as well. But, you seem to have solved your problem well! Your piece is lovely. See you in our Beatrix group! Hugs, Deb
ReplyDeleteeeek!! I hope you finish and figure it all out - brave soul! You have choosen loverly colours.
ReplyDeleteLOL, the project looks good to me, and not being able to read the instructions certainly does add to the mystery!
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks pretty...look forward to seeing more pics.
ReplyDeleteSmoking needles at yours for the next few days then. LOL It looks pretty - will enjoy seeing the finished piece. :0)
