Facebook Pay-it-forward

I have completed my first pay-it-forward gift. This was a meme back at the beginning of the year where you promised to make something and send it to the first five people that commented on your status. Well I only got two comments which must mean that either no-one reads my statuses or most people aren’t too impressed with BeanPi! Oh well...
I took the opportunity to try something new (of course) and so started here:



Went to here:



And came up with this:


I’ve heard these needles described as size “OMG”. They’re pretty big and the eagle eyed among you will note that they are not even a matched pair. C’est la vie, we work with what we have.


I used a veil stitch and I think the result is not too shabby.



Happy pay-it-forward, Jess.

Bees
