The Wisteria House

Another happy dance~ Well, I actually cheated on this one, since I’ve started it back in 2009 and got all the stitching done, but was intimidated by the assembling. So it waited this many years before seeing the light again, and I finally have the courage to put them together. It is not perfect, but I am happy with the result!!

Pattern: 3D Cross Stitch by Meg Evershed “Wisteria House”
Thread: DMC Cotton Thread
Fabric: Walls – 22ct hardanger; Roof – 28ct Cashel Linen in Lilac 
Finished Size: 1.75”L x 1.5”W x 3.5”H
Completion Date: 05-30-2014

I love purple, and I love Wisteria, so if this house is real, I would be living in it!!!! Still thinking if I want to stitch a ribbon on top. With the lavender sachet inside, it sure smells wonderful~

This is a really wonderful book, with so many interesting 3D projects inside. Who knows, I might be bold enough to start another one someday~

Happy Friday~

State Fair

Hello, my darling friends~~ How have you been? It has been a while since I last post, but finally, another finish!!! (Happy Dance!!)I really love the blues and greens and oranges on this one, it was these colors that caught my eye in the first place.

Another reason I love this design is because it reminded me of my State Fair experiences when I was in the US. I am a big fan of State Fairs!!! I love seeing all the animals, crafts and the food!!!! So much fun~

It has been raining non-stop here lately…. I miss the sun!!! Hope you all are having a wonderful week!!
