I've done quite a bit more on 'Spring' and just have the flower pots and label to put on now. I thought that these L*K designs would be quick and fun to stitch, but I've found them to be quite long-winded and rather boring, if I'm honest. I will finish the series as I've had them for years and have gone to the trouble of doing almost two so far, and I do love 'four seasons' collections. I hope they can eventually go in Sir's new study when we go home. we may find a way of displaying them here in the meantime.
We bought a set of the most beautiful lilac rose bedding this week, (which I'd been hoping for for a few weeks!) and that made me really want to pretty up our bedroom. Once I get the rest of the housework up to date (ha-ha-ha!) then I want to make a start on getting things in there looking good. This is the fabric:
And this is a Brazilian embroidery kit that I want to work up to go on the wall. The actual thread colours match the bedding really well.
Oh - the hardanger piece is Beautiful!! Congratulations on the finish!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely, how do you have the patience? I can't do any kind of drawn threadwork, my brain doesn't do counting! Thanks for your very kind comments, and support re the building work! Varnishing skirting boards today, (but I want to do art and stitching!)ah well. Nearly there!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing the hardanger piece. It's beautiful!!! It makes me wants to look for my hardanger projects which i haven't touch for sooooo long!

ReplyDeletethe hardanger is beautiful, the finish is pretty too.
ReplyDeleteThe Fabric (with roses) is amazing.
Congratulations on the hardanger piece. It's stunning!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the LK stuff. It looks cute and like it's going to be quick, but for me it drags on because it's almost too easy and I get bored.
Looking forward to seeing your work on the Brazilian piece.
OH MY GOODNESS...it is awesome!! Wonderful work!
