I just love this little fella, my feelings were quite mixed as I started to crochet all the individual parts but once he was assembled I quite fell in love with him he has such a sweet face don't you think.😀
Shamus the seagull will join the rest of the sea creatures that we are creating to decorate our Mariner in early Summer. In the meantime he is sat on my stairs I may make a couple of friends to keep him company, time permitting.
You can find the paid pattern for Shamus here he is called Marvin in the pattern but he looked like a Shamus to me.😂
I have completed the month of February on the Year Of Doodles Stitchery
This is a lovely project, it's nice to pick it up and sew a few stitches now and then. I'm looking forward to starting March and picking out the colours is part of the fun. I'm thinking greens, yellows, purples and pinks probably similar to February, they are my favourite colours after all.
and I started the heart stitchery I showed you last week...
I'm enjoying this too, just taking it nice and slow, I'm going to enjoy sewing this this afternoon and the good news is days are getting longer and because we have more natural light there are more sewing hours to enjoy.
I hope you all have a peaceful Sunday and week ahead, see you next time.😘😘

ReplyDeleteI think Shamus is just so cute and I love him! You did a great job and I love to see everything you are working on Linda. Enjoy the week!
ReplyDeleteLove your seagull! Your projects are really nice too.
ReplyDelete"How do you do, Shamus. It's lovely to meet you. Why, such a cute face you have." Linda, such a clever artist you are! Your Shamus is the sweetest seagull. He is going to look fabulous hanging out with other friends at the Mariner. Though, of course he looks rather settled sitting on your stairs. =) Love the flower on your embroidered heart and all those teeny embroideries for the month of February are fantastic. I look forward to what your clever fingers stitch for the month of March.
ReplyDeleteOh my, I love the heart embroidery as well as the February wedge. Such beautiful colors and stitching. Shamus made me smile. I like crocheting creatures.
ReplyDeleteShamus is super cute. Love his whimsical look! I'm here via Sum of Their Stories. Come join in on the fun each week at the Home Matters Link Party - Starts Thursday night through Monday.
ReplyDeleteI think the name Shamus suits your seagull ... he is so cute and looks very happy sitting on your stairs :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the week ahead.
All the best Jan
Shamus is adorable. I love the year of doodles stitching, would love to order but shipping to Canada is so-o-o-o high.
ReplyDeleteThere's a downloadable pdf Linda but you would have mark out the design yourself, not easy I know.
DeleteHello Shamus! Your embroidery projects both look lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love the colours on your wheel, I am struggling with mine, I'm not doing much at this time of year. Shamus is great, a friend is suggesting we get together and make a post box topper.
ReplyDeleteI love Shamus and I'm looking forward to meeting him on Friday! Is there a knitting pattern? Your year of doodles is coming along nicely too. It's going to be fabulous once finished xx
ReplyDeleteYes I have a knitting pattern Babs I'll give it to you on Friday x
DeleteShamus is simply adorable. Xx
ReplyDeleteGreat work.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about crocheting amigurumi - and all the pieces parts. And how fun it is when it comes together. Shamus is absolutely adorable. I love his knees! And your latest stitches are pretty. Is the heart stitched in satin stitch? That looks just lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe heart is stitched in rows of chain stitch Becki. x
DeleteAh! I had to embiggen it quite a bit to see, but I think I can see the chains. That works very well.
DeleteI love Shamus, you've got more patience than I have, oooh, all those fiddly bits, haha. Your display is going to look fabulous in summer. The stitchery is coming along beautifully and I do like the heart you've started too.
ReplyDeleteI love Shamus, he is such a sweet seagull. Your embroidery looks so neat and beautiful. Have a good weekend, take care Cathy x
ReplyDeleteShamus is adorable and I love his skinny legs and little knees! And yes, he has a very sweet face. The embroidery is so pretty; how fun to watch the year unfold. And the heart embroidery - those flowers are gorgeous. Enjoy the rest of your week!
ReplyDeleteLoving Shamus the Seagull!
