Elizabeth Pickford 1842

Greetings all!!!! Here is my latest stitch and it was a wonderfully relaxing project~~ The soothing overdye thread colors against the 32 count Toasted Coconut linen by Dixie Sampler Linen worked perfectly together....

 
From Brethern Blue and Mountain Mist to Apple Cider and Flax.... The overdyes thread combination is a favorite of mine....
 
 

 

Hoping everyone is enjoying their Labor Day weekend.... I will be honoring those who are serving, and have served, in a special rememberence tomorrow....

 

Kindly ~~

 

Faye

beautiful sampler finish Faye! I loved seeing all the finishes in the prior post and thanks for the link on the twisted chain cord, you always go above and beyond for your stitchers. Hope Labor Day was a great one for you, we're still getting a lot of rain and it was a soggy weekend and I had startitis but it was fun! Take care Mel
