~ witch stitchery ~

 

a quiet morning, before the hot sun rises...

i gathered simple supplies and began stitching in the most humble way.

 

faint lines are drawn onto my ground cloth,
to act only as a guidance of-sorts
to keep my lettering somewhat straight.

but
this kind of stitching doesn't need perfectly straight lines, now does it?

welcome to the world of uncounted cross stitch...as I call it.
or primitive stitching, or slow stitching, or
whatever pleases you to call it by.

what's the difference in the photos above and below?
not much.
same cloth, same thread, same needle ~

even the same stitch.
but the witch stitchery below is of course,
counted cross stitch.

I made the framed sampler for me.
~ for once.

I've had this old old frame with wavy glass for eons
and have always wanted to put something in it to keep for
my very own self.

so i did.

wishing you all a beautiful day, filled with
peace, kindness and creativity.

Blessings from the Farm
