This was a fun little stitch that I started just to have a palette cleanser. I have a couple more LK patterns that are small and should be easy to complete, so I'm looking forward to whenever I get around to stitching those. I'm not sure yet whether I'll be keeping this or gifting to someone else.
Fabric: 28 ct Monaco, coffee/tea-dyed by Barbara, stitched 2/2
Floss: called for DMC
Started on September 19, 2018. Finished on September 9, 2019.
Part of a seasonal set of the same house scene. This is the first one I've stitched. I was lucky enough to win a kit (all of these patterns, the floss, the fabric, and a needle minder) from Barbara herself via one of Michelle @ BS's Walk to End Alzheimer's auctions.
This was a really quick stitch once I actually focused on it. Should not have been sitting for a year, but these things happen when you have so many WIPs lol. I'm hoping to have the next piece in this series started soon!
Fabric: 36 ct Vintage Pear linen from Lakeside Linens (bought from 123stitch), stitched 2/2
Floss: provided DMC conversion
Started on February 24, 2019. Finished on September 5, 2019.
I started my first ever sampler as my very first Sunday High Tea project!! The pattern was a lovely gift from a stitchy friend, and the butterflies (of course) and sentiment both speak to me. I absolutely loved stitching on this linen as well; I've already got plans to stitch on more 36 ct in the future <3
I changed the initials in the center to LD for Ladywing Designs. The Z and R at the bottom also have changed places and colours, as those are my government initials lol. I seriously love this so much!!🦋🦋🦋
I'm so happy that I got to work on this project again! It's really fun to see the image come together just from using 3 shades of blue (originally charted in grey & white).
