A Finish To Share....


Stitched on 32 Vintage Buttercream by Lakeside Linen using the GAST that the design calls for.

This design is from the Blackbird Designs "A Stitcher's Journey" book & I stitched it for Carol.   We decided back before Easter sometime to do a private exchange and this is what I decided to make for her.  USPS shows it was delivered yesterday afternoon, so I thought it was safe to share a picture now.  I sure hope Carol likes it!  This is one of my two favorite designs from this book & I plan to stitch it again for myself.  The fabric used in the finishing & the pincushion is by Blackbird Designs as well...  which is my all time favorite.  I decided to use different fabrics on the inside, as you can see.

I didn't stitch earlier in the week & night before last, I decided to pick up a new, small project.  I hope to finish it tonight - we'll see! :-)  I'll be back soon with more to share.

Thanks for stopping by & happy stitching!!

**Edited to add - the first picture makes it look like the fabric on top isn't smooth around the edges.  It is, it's the rick rack trim around the outside edge that makes it look that way from the top.  Here is another picture showing that part a bit!   :-)

Title : Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO W, Women's Fitness, Grey (Grey/Pink), 6-6.5 UK (37 EU) ASIN : B00DYXNW8C Description : MINIMALIST RUNNING / BAREFOOT RUNNING The typical human foot is an anatomical masterpiece of evolution with 26 bones, 33 joints, 20 muscles, and hundreds of sensory receptors, tendons and ligaments. To keep our feet healthy, like the rest of our bodies, they need to be stimulated and exercised regularly. Many experts believe the shoes we wear not only cast the foot in a protective form, but can also weaken our foot and leg muscles, leaving them underdeveloped and more susceptible to injury. And while there are many occasions where traditional footwear is essential for protection, safety, and security, it is equally important to stimulate and exercise our feet in a more natural state on a regular basis.
