First post of 2019, Happy New Year!
So it's back to reality, the holidays are over and it's back to the grindstone of a daily working life.
However we still have the every day pleasures of stitching. I have completed Part One, Little Red Barn of Farmhouse Christmas by Little House Needleworks. This was one of my monthly goals and I am pleased to have this one under my belt. Previously I had been stitching the outer border and the inner borders so I had a head start. There is about 1¾ of the inner border on the second row still to complete. I'm going to leave the bottom ones as I would need to move the scroll rods, so that is for a later date. The red, Classic Colorworks Cherry Cobbler, is so pretty.

Until next time …...
This is adorable! When completed, this is going to be fabulous!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your finish! Your barn looks super. Cherry Cobbler is a favorite red.
ReplyDeleteYou've made a good start and having prepared the borders is an incentive to progress with the fun bit of completing the individual designs.

That's really pretty, it will be a wonderful piece when completed
ReplyDeleteHappy 2019
I know I'll enjoy seeing this project throughout the year, Andrea! I only stitched this first one and the quilt one--not sure if I will do the others or not. I do love that red as well :)
ReplyDeleteGreat start, the red does look pretty.
ReplyDeleteWow! This already looks to be a beautiful finish and inspired to make it a whole piece rather than individually. Are you stitching this 1 thread over 2?
ReplyDeleteOh this is going to be a great finish Andrea. Love that barn and the red is wonderful. RJ@stitchingfriendsforever
ReplyDeleteWow what a super project this is. I too love the red and how it pops. You have the best stitching going on. Look forward to seeing more. RJ@stitchingfriendsforever
