I belong to the Cross Stitch Nation

Started way back in May 2018, over the recent weekend I finished the last bit of stitching on the Cross Stitch Nation. I actually started this when Hannah and I stayed up very late watching Harry and Megan's Royal wedding.

This chart is by the Heartstring Samplery and I used my favourite fabric, 32 count vintage mocha Belfast linen and most of the recommended threads. I did use more than one skein of the Week's Dye Works Red Rocks thread.

I'm thinking I might turn this into, wait for it...... another project bag! 

See you soon xx

All things stitching

Over the weekend I finished the very last part of the Farmhouse Christmas series, Ba Ba Black Sheep.

I hope to make a start on turning my stitching into individual ornaments later this week.

I "think" I've finally finished stitching the last of my 2018 ornaments for family and friends - I need to do a count up to check, and of course, there are several that I won't be able to show until after they have been given to the recipients :) This one is from Hands on Designs Chalkboard ornament series.

Started back in May, while Hannah and I were watching the Royal Wedding of Megan and Harry, I have been slowly stitching away on Cross Stitch Nation by Heartstring Samplery.

I couldn't resist ordering the new Lizzie Kate Christmas Santa pattern (available from 123 Stitch) and it arrived in the post yesterday. Last night I sorted the threads and some fabric so I'll making a start on it tonight.  It looks a cute stitch.

See you soon x
