"Daffies in an Old Granite Pan"
design by Maggie Bonanomi
kitted by Blackberry Primitives
This was a newly purchased bonus project for March and I enjoyed creating it ever so much!
The design was so lovely and simple that I felt that I could add a cotton print binding without overwhelming or detracting from the design.
On a bright sunny day, it is hard to find the right light for photos.
Hopefully this will give you the idea.
I used my Nikki's Notables notions bag while working on this project.
It was the perfect size for my thread, scissors, ruler and a few other things.
Many of you asked about my staples for prepping this project.
Staples are my favorite for holding wool in place. No more getting pricked from pins.
I spoke more about using staples in this post here.
I did get a long arm stapler that Christmas and have been using it ever since :)
I also completed a new bonus cross stitch project for March and will share that soon.
I rely on God who is my deliverance and my glory;
he is my strong rock,
and my refuge is in God.
People, in every situation put your trust in God;
pour out your heart before him;
for God is a refuge for us.
~Psalm 62:7-8

This looks fabulous. I think the binding adds the perfect touch to your finish. Your 'tool' pouch is lovely and functional. I was wondering if it was one of hers. Enjoy your day!

ReplyDeleteDang....but you’re a quick stitch!! Puts me all to shame. And despite your quickness, your stitches and finishes are always absolute perfection, That wool is sumptuous. Love your little project pouch too. I guess I always look at her shop at the wrong times because it’s always next-to-empty whenever I look. Going to keep trying though! ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed with all your finishes! You put me to shame...lol.
