Stitchery Link Party

Today I am linking with 'Super Mom No Cape' for the second week of her embroidery link up party.

Each Monday, 'Super Mom No Cape' will be hosting a link up party for embroidery projects. Pop over and visit her blog to see the projects others have shared for the link up, you are sure to find something that you like!!



For my project this week I am revisiting an old post to show you a favourite little embroidery of mine which I drew myself and then hand embroidered.  I made it into a mini wall hanging which is pinned onto my pinboard just above my desk.  I love to be able to see it while I am typing away at my computer!!


Hope you like it too!!

  1. Oh Christine... that is soooo pretty! I love how you used a blanket stitch to make the curve of the grass/ground under the wheelbarrel. I'm going to have to remember that!

    And thanks so much for linking up for a second week and also helping to get the word out about it. It's such fun seeing what others have created. Hugs!!

  7. Do small things with great love. Thinking a lot this week of how I can add beauty to my days. The flowers filling up the wheel barrow would make me smile as I look at it each day. So much beauty in the spring and summer with flowers outdoors, I love to bring that same beauty inside in creative ways. Lots of creativity in your design. Thanks for sharing. Appreciate your encouraging words at The Girlfriend Gap today. Thank you. Janita
