B is for...


Welcome to the next installment of the A to Z Blogging Challenge! For today's portion of the Once Upon A Time Character Alphabet, I present to you:


Belle of Beauty and the Beast fame! In the show, Belle is the local librarian in Storybrooke as well as the wife to her "Beast", Mr. Gold (aka Rumpelstiltskin - you'll see him later this month! Told you things get complicated...) You'll notice that this letter has two characters in it rather than just one like A had. That's because there are many characters in Once Upon A Time who have both a "fairy tale" persona and a "real world" one because of the curse that brought them out of the world of the Enchanted Forest and into Storybrooke in our world. Belle is one such character!

A is for...

Until next time!

  1. Awesome idea for the blog challenge! I'd love to get into cross-stitching but have no idea where to even begin. Any suggestions?

    1. Thanks so much! When I got into cross stitching as a kid, I started with some pretty basic kits I got at my local hobby shop (Michael's, Joann's, Hobby Lobby, etc.). It's not a difficult hobby insomuch as it is really just following a pattern and poking holes in fabric with needle and thread

  2. Beautiful Belle :-) That's my B today, too. They look terrific, Katy.

  3. I initially thought your beads were french knots and I thought they were the best knots I had ever seen! I'm probably going to bead too (because I HATE french knots)...good job!

    1. Haha no...I can do a decent French Knot but I don't like them much. Substituting for beads in this piece I think is going to work so much better! Yay bling!

  5. I am pretty sure that in Once Upon A Time, it was Lacey French not Belle French

    1. Yes it was for a couple of episodes when she didn't remember who she was. The designer decided to stick with Belle since that's what she's been for the overwhelming majority of the show and I liked that too!

  7. They look really good! I was just thinking about how many of these you will have completed by the end of April. That will be quite a collection! :)

    1. Yep, an entire alphabet! I'm stitching them all on one piece of fabric so it will be a nice completed piece by the end of the month!

  8. Belle looks great Katy. How in the heck are you getting both stitched in an evening.
