Sister is a Blessing


Through the patience and kindness of my second sister,

who painstakingly taught me (zero knowledge)

the basics of beading:

the terminology,

the jargons,

the hours spent drawing threading paths

the hours of translation whether it is Japanese

or Chinese explaining the how-tos

whenever I emailed her..

and I can now proudly present some of my works.

Thanks sis.. You are an inspiration!


I am the youngest sister of blog owner Angeline

Cross Stitch/クロス。ステッチ


I love this cross-stitch very much. Out of so many pieces that I have done, I love this the most.

It took me quite a long time to finish cos the original design is a tapestry. I tried to match the

colors with DMC floss and took me about a week or so checking the colors in the needlework

shop. The original tapestry is now at the William Morris gallery in Walthamstow, London.
私はこのクロス。ステッチが一番好きです。ずいぶん時間がかかりました。* - - *
