SAL – Sunday 14th January 24

Hello everyone

Happy New Year to you all!

I hope the Christmas Holidays gave you all that you wished for and didn’t our siw week break just fly by! I was lucky to have the whole of the holidays off work and I have made excellent use of the time. As you will see in the following photos I have sewn all the green vines for the centre part of My Fruits of Plenty cross stitch design by Jacob de Graaf of Modern Folk Embroidery. ( I only have one two-stranded length of cotton left.) Also changed the top vignette to a Bungalow and the second one to a bird house.

I have left the bottom two triangles and the two side triangle until later. Undecided as to which designs I want to incorporate.

There is still loads to do – my initials, squirrels and more birds in black and berries in lilac and overstitch the main outline in the centre and all around the outside edge of the design. It is quite a large design. but for now I am very happy with my progress.

Well that is that, please pop along to the other sites to see how they progressed in our six week break.
