"I Stitch…"

I posted these snaps on the PSS FB group page yesterday,

showing a new finish for a little idea I had ~

this is a cross stitched cuff bracelet…

the name of the design is "I Stitch…"

I stitched it onto 30ct Parchment Linen from Weeks Dye Works

using ons strand of floss over two threads of linen

in DMC colors 831 & 3858…

when finished I backed it with a brown/cream calico cotton fabric ~

…then I stitched tiny black seed beads along the two longer sides ~

it reads:

"I Stitch, Therefore I Am Remembered."

This will be a new pattern that I'll be taking along with me to the 

PSS Retreat Merchant Mall

May 1 & 2

in Williamsburg, VA ~

It will be available for everyone in my Etsy shop too !!

the next few designs that I'll be making will be coming along with me to the 

Virginia Rug Fest on April 18th

so I'll be sharing some finishes for punch needle & wool appliqué, and perhaps a small hooked project or two :)

~ and ~

I am inviting you to become a member of

Well, the sun is shining, but it is cold this morning ~

there was a very hard frost last night and we woke to chilly temps.

Hoping that the sun will warm things enough so I can hang out some fresh laundry!

...Let the SPRING CLEANING begin!
