Floss tag for Wendy Jo

When I stitched Jayne's Attic Monthly Challenge for August (here), I thought that the little corner with the robin would make a great floss tag and, as I wanted to stitch a tag for Wendy Jo, I decided on this one. I used the same 40ct linen and Vikki Clayton and AVAS silks that I used for the pinkeep and, I got to use my Crop-a-dile too! I then decided to send both the pinkeep and the floss tag to Wendy Jo and I have heard from her that she has now received them. I could not resist adding some floss tags with tiny robins to complete the theme.

It's dull and dismal here today so I think a stitchy day is called for. Yesterday, I stitched part of the JBW Designs French Country Reindeer. I decided to go with Glorianna Poinsettia on 35ct white linen - one strand over two and he's nearly finished. I have left off the word "Reindeer" at the bottom and added my grandson's name instead. I do love those French Country designs. I will post a photo when the ornament is finished.

And so to stitch ...

Thanks for visiting

Take care

Wonderful floss tag! And of course the added touch of the personalized floss drops complete it!

As soon as I get my work done around the house, I'll be stitching and thinking of you :)
