We had a lovely weekend with family visiting. The boys had too many eggs as usual lol and we are now enjoying the holidays.
I am hoping this year to have a few cross stitch ornaments on the tree. I say this every year but by the time I see every ones on their blogs it's too late!! So this year I have started early. I have a few designs already stitched up but this is the only one I have finished so far. I stitched it sometime in February and did the finishing last week. I am awful at finishing and have a huge pile of items to be finished. So please excuse the shabby edges of this. I used some felt ribbon for the trim. If you live in the UK please can I ask where you get your trim from? This is a Lizzie*Kate design and I love the whole set. Hopefully I will get the lot completed one day lol.
Thank you so much for commenting and visiting my blog I really appreciate it. It puts a smile on my face to see a comment.
Have a wonderful weekend

What a lovely finish this is I really like this cute design and you have finished it beautifully.
ReplyDeleteIt depends whereabouts you like in the UK - I get my trims from Boyes (a North East store), I also look in gift shops as they often have East of India trims - usually ribbon/braid/buttons - it can get a bit pricey sometimes too.
The haberdashery dept in good stores like John Lewis and House of Fraser often have some trims as do most local markets, there is a good market in Durham for things like large headed glass pins and cords

Hi , welcome to blogland. No probs you putting my blog on your sidebar, most people don't ask to be honest lol.
ReplyDeleteI tend to get trimming bits from the ocal indoor market which has a habadashery stall which is really nice.
Your first finish ornament looks perfect to me. Looking forward to see more...
