Remember back at the beginning of the year when I made a list of projects that I really wanted to get stitched and my “magic” 20-side die? Well, last night it was time to roll for a new start. This morning I had everything together,
The project is The BarnHouse by Cottage GardenSamplings. It is part of last years House series (I stitched the first 4-5 right away). Have the rest of the patterns in the series along with all the supplies. Now to stitch them up.
Anyway – here is the start – The fabric is obviously 18 ct Vintage Stormy night and I went ahead and indulged in a silk pack from BeStitchMe. To this point, I am all of 1100 stitches into the pattern. It is mostly Barn. There is a lot of barn. A couple of small animals and framed by some sunflower appearing flowers on each side. Did I mention that the barn is big? I think I have about 4500 more stitches to do on the barn.
In further progress, I stitched the center section of February this evening –
Hanging hearts, a couple of kids, mailbox, flowers and grass. It was the widest but least stitches section. Tomorr0w – the second pink house.
