2012 Comes to a Close

It's the final day before 2012 ends and makes way for 2013, and what a year it's been. The ups, the downs, the in-betweens... I've got a couple of little patterns for you in honor of January's rise: the classic "Happy New Year" text, and a lovely little champagne glass.

When stitching the rose, just pick four reds or pinks (or any other rose colours -- yellow, blue, white-grey...) for the flower and three greens for the leaves.

The champagne is based on a Gaia Online item, only with far fewer shades. The item has around 130 colours, while this pattern uses only eight. That's far less trouble, don't you think? :)

Why a rose? Because why not.

Tasty.~

If I wasn't dirt-poor, I'd have already bought the threads for the champagne pattern and stitched it! But, you know, dirt-poor and such. One of these days...

Anyway, happy new year's eve! We're almost there, to 2013.
Hope you have a great year!
