I had seen the chart “Time to Stitch” by Needlework Press posted on a number of sites but somehow it never struck my fancy as something I would like to stitch for myself. The chart shows the piece finished into a Lone Elm Lane Shaker Box (6 or 8 inch) OR using the Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Alarm Clock Frame available at any number of stores.
BUT then I saw a finished piece posted on the Tomorrow’s Heirlooms Facebook group and that convinced me that I really wanted to stitch this one.
I selected a piece of 16ct Storm Aida from Hand Dyed Fabrics by Stephanie and Darkest Midnight Blue floss from Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe with Tin Bucket by Gentle Arts. The clock faces used for finishing are also by Tim Holtz Idea-Ology and can be ordered online.
Started Stitching October 14, 2016 Finished October 19, 2016
The picture does not do the stitched piece justice as the fabric is actually a mottled smoky grey. Now to send it off to the finisher.
And the finished piece back from Vonna Pfeiffer and her The Twisted Stitcher’s Finishing Service.

Pat, your finish is darling and I like the finishing idea you found (the pillow). Could you tell me if there was over one stitching with this design? Thank you!
