Summer Garden
Little House Needleworks
Stitched on 40ct Tanzanite Linen with Crescent Colours
One thing that did surprise me was this one little group of flowers! To me they look like dadelions that have gone all fluffy! I've done some searching online, and no one seems to have put those little knots in that I did. They were dots on the charts, but no instructions so I decided to put in some colonial knots. I think this was my favorite part of the chart.
So this travelling pattern is now ready to move on!!! Leave a comment here and I'll randomly select someone to be the next stitcher! The only thing is you must be an active blogger, and that if your e-mail account isn't linked to your Blogger profile please leave an e-mail address so I can contact you. The deadline to throw your name in the hat is Monday July 21st, I'd like to get it out in the mail before I head to Charleston, S.C. on the 23rd!
A few weeks ago in the mail I received another travelling pattern, this time from Mouse! As you can see from the back of the envelope there was no secret who this was from if you read her blog, she always tells you the kettle is on and its time to settle in for a cuppa. She was so kind to include a skein of floss called Steaming Needles which was so appropriate because I had just finished Birth Announcement!
This sweet Lizzie*Kate will be a quick stitch, and here's my floss toss. A few of the colours the chart called for I had on hand, some others I improvised with from my stash. Keep an eye out this chart will be moving on soon!

Your LHN turned out great!
Can't wait to see the new travelling pattern progress
I'm with you on the LHN/CCN-style charts....every so often one "calls" to me, but many times they just don't suit me. But I like this one! You did a lovely job, too! Put me in the drawing, please?
Summer Garden is very cute and I love the colors that you picked and knots really made the flowers pop! Please throw my name in as I would really love to stitch this piece.
Happy Stitching
