I have a bunch of smaller pieces that I consider "seasonal pieces" that I can switch based on the season or holiday. Most of the pieces are for fall so I decided to stitch this one pattern that I knew I had the fabric and threads for in my stash.
It's called "Violets are Blue." It's from Cross Stitch! magazine from the 1990s (out of the stash of mags I got from my cousin Amy). There's not much to it so I was able to get the majority of it stitched today. It's just as well since I have to spend most of tomorrow cleaning because my mother arrives for a visit on Saturday.
It's being stitched on 14 ct. Banjo Cloth. It's hard to see in the picture but there are some light purple flowers in the mix too. I hope to have a better picture when it's finished. I have one more row of letters and the top embellishment left.
Expect blogging to be slow this next week but I hope to be able to post some great pictures of the girls and grandma.
Nice start...looks delicate! Have a great week!
