"Blue Garden Memories"

 

It has a stitch count of 100 x 74 and is mostly full coverage.

I stitched it on a 32ct antique white even weave over (2) threads.

The floss that I used was DMC, and here is the list:

168, 415, 470, 471, 543, 648, 822, 827, 3024, 3072, 3779, 3787, 3817, 3819, 3820, 3828, 3836, 3839, 3840, 3841, 3856, 3861, 3864, 3865, 3866, Ecru

I will have a limited supply of note cards that have the painted design on the cover. 
I will include these with the charts for the first printing run.

So if you have some memories of the last of your Summer Flower Garden hold them dear,
 take pictures and maybe you can stitch yours also!
Have a great weekend 
and the design will be ready in a couple of weeks,
 I am just waiting for the cards to come in 
so I can include them with the first printing of the charts.

Just a little peek of what I have been working on.
There are more photos on Instagram .
I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July.
 It has been so hot here
and across the country UGH!! 
We need a bit of rain too.
I am planning on a small 2 day stitching retreat here in York Maine in the fall.
It will be on free hand embroidery and slow stitching.
Lets be creative :)
I do not have any information yet but as soon as I do I will send out more. 
And if you have any suggestions they are always welcomed. 
I hope you have a good weekend,

I Am A Child of The King Coming Soon

 


"I Am A Child of The King" coming soon!!! 
Still adjusting a few things, I can't wait to release it. 
It started out by a drawing that I had made for the little girl, 
I wanted only a touch of color. 
I downloaded my drawing and made it into a card 
and decided it would be great as a cross stitch design too. 
Then I Thought hmmmm what about the boys? 
So I got into the pattern program I use, adjusted the girl...
lots of adjusting.....
and then changed lots and made a boy too....
I have not stitched them but I will stitch one for my grand-daughter.....
Watch for the design coming soon!!!
Love you all
hugs
