I'm Wendy and I live in Adelaide, South Australia. I have been cross stitching for about 25 years, but really grew up stitching and knitting.
I started my first Chatelaine about 16 months ago after seeing a couple of finished mandalas at a craft show in Brisbane. I have to admit that I am still doing that one (misty morning vineyard), but then I found Martina's website and other things that I JUST had to start.
I have one finish and four current WIP's. I am stitching all my WIP's on hand dyed linen from Stitches and Spice.
My main WIP is Baroque Garden and I have managed to keep up so far (and have full intentions to remain up to date). This is stitched on gravestone 32 count linen.
My other WIPs are:
Misty Morning Vineyard, stitched on 28 count Splash linen
Hummingbird Garden, stitched on 32 count double dyed royal purple linen
and Peacock Garden (Mystery 13), on 32 count Splash linen
I have got a 'bit stuck' in part 4.
Micro 1 is my only finish so far, and is the pinker version 2
It sparkles a lot more IRL (difficult to photograph).
I think this blog is a wonderful idea, and look forward to sharing the joy of stitching these designs with everyone.

Wendy, I love your Micro 1. It's so amazing to see all those beautiful details in something so small. :D
Great WIPs!! I remember your Hummie!! I thought that was such an interesting color fabbie and it shows off the stitching beautifully!
I hope you'll be 'unstuck' on Peacock soon.
Everything looks so pretty!
I'm stuck on Part 4 of the Peacock Mandala, too. I took a break from it and completed Part 5, which has been a good motivator to keep me going.
Lovely wips Wendy, the fabby on Hummie (LOL)is beautiful!!
Congratulations Wendy on all your beautiful projects and I love your fabrics choice. Your Baroque Gardens is just fantastic :-))
Beautiful stitching ...you made a good choice, all your projects are beautiful !
