Now it’s time for one of my favorite Friday Finishes! There’s not much of an introduction for this one, so let’s dive right in!

This week’s Friday Finishes is the second gift I ever stitched for someone! (The first being the Dolphin piece I made for my sister.)
Name of Piece: Art. 1879, Friends

Kit Contains: 18 ct. aida, embroidery floss, needle, embossed card, envelope, backing card, and complete instructions.
Finished Size: 4 in. by 6 in.
Okay… from this Friday Finishes there should be no missing information on the charts. Unless something went missing, I do believe I kept every chart and the information that went with it. No more problems like Sleepy Moon! I don’t know what clicked within me to start keeping my info, but I stopped throwing them away after the Dolphin piece. I think. We’ll find out as I keep writing the articles, I suppose.
Now on to this week’s Friday Finishes!
Name of Piece: Item 4572 Books

Distributed as a kit by NeedleMagic Inc. under their Bookmark series
Kit Contains: 18 ct. aida fabric, embroidery floss, needle, graph, and easy to follow instructions.
Finished Size: 2 in. x 6.75 in.
Today’s Friday Finishes was very nearly a bust again, stitchers!
Why did I throw away the information on my finishes? I wish I hadn’t, I was so stupid to do so… once again I sat down to write an article on my finish and once again, didn’t have the information. And I was almost unable to find it. Thank you eBay, after I searched a couple of different keywords I just started scrolling through and I found it!
Name of Piece: Dolphin #4112
Designed by: The kit doesn’t say!
Distributed as a kit by NeedleMagic Inc. under their “Stitch ‘N’ Frame” series.
Kit Contains: 14 ct. Aida fabric, thread, needle, graph, frame, self-adhesive mounting board, and easy to follow instructions.
Finished Size: 2.5 inches round.
Today’s Friday Finishes is one big mystery… one that may never be solved.
When I originally sat down to write this article, I discovered two very crucial things: one, that the information I thought I had on the kit was missing, and two, that the finished piece itself was missing. » Read more
Today’s Friday Finishes moves on from my beginner days straight into six years later. Yes, it took me six years from my Love Bug finish to finish another cross-stitch project. What can I say, I was young and easily distracted by the Internet.
Name of Piece: Queenie
Designed by: The kit does not say, it’s a hit or miss on whether Janlynn lists the designer on their kits.
Distributed as a kit by the Janlynn Company, under their “Designs for the Needle” series.
Kits Contains: 14 ct. Aida, floss, needle, chart, and instructions.
Finished Size: 5″ x 7″ or 12,7 x 17,8 cm
Today’s Friday Finishes once again heads back into the past to take a look at the second piece I ever finished. I no longer have the information on this kit (it must’ve been thrown away once I finished with it) but I do have Google to point me to the details!
Name of Piece: Love Bug
Designed by: It doesn’t say, this seems to be a common occurrence with most kits.
Distributed as a kit by NeedleMagic Inc.
Kit Contains: 14 ct. Aida fabric, thread, needle, graph, frame, self-adhesive mounting board, and instructions.
Finished Size: 3 inches round » Read more
Welcome to the first Friday Finishes article… that isn’t actually coming out on a Friday!
This article focuses on the very first cross-stitch piece I ever did at eight years old. After an exhaustive search of Google and the Internet, on a journey that took me from unreadable and non-loading Chinese websites to eBay, I have discovered all the information necessary to write this article, finally. Considering I completed this when I was eight I have no idea what happened to the chart or the front cover and I couldn’t remember the name of the kit or who it was by. Now I know, so now I can write the article!
Name of Piece: Learn a Craft (For Kids!) – Smiley Flower
Designed by: It doesn’t say on the front cover, and since I don’t own the kit anymore I couldn’t tell you if it was anywhere else.
Distributed as a kit by Dimensions, under their “Learn A Craft” series. Kit is copyright 1997.
Kit Contains: 11 ct. white aida, 3 in. hoop, white cotton thread, needle, chart, and instructions.
Finished Size: 3 in (8 cm) round
