I have finished February and March in the CCN Cottages of the month and started April. I count these as finishes even though they are all part of a series of 12 which will eventually be one nice large picture. The cottages are stitching up quickly though of course the frogs have been visiting and sometimes it is 20 stitches in 20 stitches out. A bit like the hokey dokey. You can also see that I stitch in hand and my fabric does get a little creased. Next time I will iron it .
A sideways picture of some stash that just happened to fall in my basket while browsing the internet.
This is a close up of some of the threads I just had to have |
Your cottages look beautiful Denise and what a great idea to do them as a wall hanging!
ReplyDeleteLove the new stash!

Your cottages are so pretty and I just love all the colors in those pieces. Thanks for sharing your STASH acquisitions too! Sorry the frogs visited, but you know it's spring and they are popping up all over! I was cleaning in one of my garden beds and found a little tiny frog and decided it was a sign that I shouldn't stitch that day, lol.
ReplyDeleteLove your cottages when finished this will be a nice pig piece. well done and lovely new stash.
