another January
Wednesday, February 05, 2014
Here is another January-inspired stitch. I love stitching things for the months, especially these small pieces. They seem to stitch up quickly. This is a Rouge du Rhin kit. Many of the embroidery stitches I hadn't attempted before, so it has been a good learning experience. I will say that this kit is very unforgiving if you make a mistake! I used the wrong color green on the leaves, and there was no extra to take it out and re-stitch it. I think that it will be okay, and that I will have enough to finish it! I will have to pay extra careful attention on the next one. Any finishing ideas? I was thinking of maybe a little ornament....
Kindly, ~Jaime

How lovely! I'm always particular fond of hearts and flowers. The idea of turning it into a lavender sachet is inspired - or perhaps filled with rose petals, another of my favorites.
