Stitchy Time

Sometimes we all need a cup of tea and some cross stitch.

A little birthday card for a musical friend of mine. I actually reversed the colours for the aida and the stitching because I thought this would stand out better. What do you think?

After quite a break, thanks to the birth of my little one I finally got to stitch again. I bought this bear before they were born but I'm glad I had to wait to finish it. My little one loves all things music and being outdoors so I tailored the pattern to them.

I found a way to make something with my mum during the lockdown. I did the cross stitch on this and left the supplies and instructions in her shopping. So mum got a surprise gift and something to do. Happy mum.

Really pleased with this bookmark. I'm not usually one for frilly things but I love all things vintage.

A kitchen sampler I made for some friends.  I like designs like this with small sections squared off. It gives you a goal for an evening stitching and also makes the pattern build up in a pleasing way,
