I recently joined a Facebook group, Cross Stitch Camp and am participating in a SAL Winter Cross Stitch Camp 2022. It’s virtual, and it’s free. You will start your Camp project on February 1 and finish by February 28. The challenge: Stitch a one color piece. It can be any color. It can be any size.
I have been wanting to stitch Simple Harvest by Blackbird Designs from the book With Needle and Thread for some time and this was small enough that I figured I could finish it in the allotted time. I chose a piece of 16ct aida I had in my stash and purchased some silk thread (Orchard) from Mo Bittner (Mo’s Sales) to stitch it with.
Started Stitching: February 1, 2022
Finished Stitching: February 3, 2022
I saw another framed finish of this one with two buttons placed on each side of the bottom which I am going to use. Now to find the right size and color buttons.
And here it is the first day of February 2023 and this one is fully finished. Added a couple of buttons and a bow and button at the top.
