Love

Lili sent me a picture of her version of the Love freebie finished as a thread keep. The fabric is 32ct Light Mocha/Mushroom Belfast linen and the threads she used are WDW Whitewash and CC Secondhand Rose. Isn't this pretty? Thank you Lili for allowing me to post this.

I also stitched up the Love freebie on 35ct Brussels linen with HDF Perfect Red. I finished as a hanging pillow and the back has a teeny teeny heart. Not a great picture - it's much prettier in real life!

This Love freebie is still available *here* or by clicking on the CHARTS button on the sidebar and while you are there please take a look around as you may find a chart or two you like!

Driving home from a family lunch at the weekend I could not resist taking a picture of the sun shining through the clouds.

Not long now until my trip to Paris. I haven't been too well these past couple of days - I feel lightheaded/dizzy and I am hoping that this subsides in the next couple of days. I haven't been stitching which proves I must be unwell!

Thanks for visiting

Take care

Your little pillow and Lili's version are both really pretty and just show how many very different ways there are of finishing such a sweet little design.
I love the photo of the sun breaking through. I really love pictures of skies. They are so atmospheric.
Carol, I hope you get better soon. I am really looking forward to meeting up in France :>)
