Save The Stitches Part 5

Hello my stitching friends!  I was feeling the urge to stitch on my Save The Stitches so that is just what I did and I completed Part 5.  


And here is the whole thing, wrinkles and all... next purchase will be an iron.

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!

    1. Thanks Mini! I didn't think I was ready for it yet either but I just jumped in and it is so much fun. I am not doing the actual blackwork technique where the back looks the same as the front I am just back stitching it. Although I would love to learn how to do actual blackwork. :)

    1. Thank you! I can't take credit for that, I gave my needlework shop a list of the threads I was using and told them to send me something that would work. I am not very good at picking out fabric yet so I leave that to the experts haha :)

    1. Thanks! You definitely should!! I was sure I wasn't going to like stitching this but it is so beautiful I figured I would just stitch away and get it done. But I am really enjoying it. It is so simple once you get a path figured out to take in each pattern.

    1. Thanks Esmeralda! I plan to frame it and hang it above my bed the long way, like a head board but maybe a biT higher so I don't fling my arms around through the night and smash the glass haha!
