Hello everyone
I hope those of you who allow christmas into your lives had a wonderful day. I hope those of you who don’t also had a wonderful day celebrating the end of all that annoying music for another year.
We had a super day with lots of great presents including some super handmade presents which I’ll share with you all later when I get some photos organised.
I though I should share a wee gift with all my beloved readers, especially those of you who actually cross stitch. Those of you who don’t might find this one enough inspiration. I made this pattern in the tradition of a cross stitch sampler. Samplers are designed to give you practise at different techniques and patterns but still end up looking interesting enough to stick on your wall if you so desire.
I’ve included the palette of colours for you to use if you want but feel free to use your own colours. Or just use one if you want.
As always I’d love to see any finished pieces. Send me an email or link back to this post.
Hopefully this keeps you entertained over the holiday period. As for me, we decided to stay at home and make some magic happen in our garden. And I’ve got a pile of sewing projects to get on to. Although I managed to land myself a cold so for now it’s blogging from bed…
Bring on 08!
