Hello friends and fellow bloggers,
Another post so soon! I have good news to tell. I have a finish on The Butterfly Garden. I stitched and stitched and stitched over the weekend and I completed the last 2 sections. On the whole I did enjoy it, but it was frustrating at times if I'm honest. All packed away now ready for the framers at some point.
The Butterfly Garden - The Drawn Thread
36ct Summer Khaki Edinburgh Linen.
Recommended silk and hand-dyed threads.
And so I will leave you with my own butterly garden, one that was photographed in the garden on Saturday before we had all of the rain, thunder and lightening! A Small Tortoiseshell I am reliably informed by Google!
Well done! It is beautiful, lovely accomplishment, so nice to see it finished :)
ReplyDeleteSo very pretty. I want to look up the pattern, read the flower names and plant them in my own butterfly garden! Nice stitching.
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous finish, and a lovely pic of the butterfly in your garden.

ReplyDeleteWhoooo hoooo! Absolutely stunning.

Oh butterfly garden is stunning. A really pretty piece of stitching ,well done. I have not seen many butterflies in the garden although I did watch the springwatch butterfly programme where it was said the weather has had a lot to do with the low figures.

Both of your butterfly gardens are gorgeous!! Love the stitched one! :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful finish, Andrea! I love the length of it, too and can't wait to see how it looks framed. Great butterfly pic!
ReplyDeleteOh I am sad - obviously thrilled for you to have another beautiful finish BUT I shall so miss each new installment as I have loved watching this one grow. I now have the chart but alas my eyes will no longer let me stitch on 36 count so mine (whenever it gets started) will be stitched on a 32 count.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a beautiful finish, Andrea! I am trying to do like you and just push to get my current piece finished! Looking forward to seeing yours framed!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful butterfly. I have never seen one like that here!
