FFO: Eat Sleep Craft Repeat

Pattern: Eat Sleep Craft Repeat

Designer: Stitchrovia / Emma Congdon

FO post 

Fabric: 32 ct Antique White Belfast linen

Floss: called for DMC

Hoop: 10" wooden from one of the big box stores

Finished on February 20, 2019. Framed on December 25, 2019.

My second-ever FFO, this time a Christmas present for my mom! It was interesting to finish in a hoop after having just tried framing. I think the process would've done a bit smoother if the hoop hadn't been so big. I really would have liked to put this in a 9" hoop, but the only one I had was broken, and I really wanted to gift it on Christmas Day. 

Here's a link to the video I used to learn how to finish things in a hoop. I got the cardstock from my mom's stash, and I really enjoyed the blanket stitching. I think next time I will just glue the craft paper on the back instead, especially on a large circumference.

Started on September 9, 2018. Finished on February 20, 2019.

I bought and started this pattern as a part of the Tour de Designers SAL in a group on Facebook. I finally picked it back up -- because of Magical Stitches, of course lol. This one is going to my mom, who asked me to stitch "Eat" and "Repeat" in the originally-charted pinks. I will stitch this again with my yellow conversion later this year.

As far as the fabric goes, I can barely tell a difference between Antique White and White.
