STITCHY GOODNESS
I've participated in a couple of stitchy exchanges over the summer and into fall. First up is a Christmas ornament exchange. Both my partner and I decided to stitch and send early. Since Karen said her ornament didn't have to be Christmas themed, I did something a little different. Here's what I stitched for Karen V in MA:
The front was stitched with SSS Plum Parfait. The back is the same linen with Karen's name, my name, and the year stitched in DMC 793 as well as 3 tiny snowflake buttons. I made the cording with DMC 157 and 793 along with a bit of SSS.
She messaged me how much she liked it and said she was going to find a place for it and leave it out year round. It always makes me happy when I know the recipient likes what I sent.
This is what I received from Karen. Aren't they so so CUTE?!
I finished this cute needleslide. It's stitched over-one on 32ct fabric. Can you say adorbs?!
The needles are placed in a piece of felt on the backside and the whole thing is held in the tin by a very strong tiny magnet.
HUMOR
I'm going to leave you with a bit of stitchy humor and truth:
Until next time...
