First Harvest finish

So, after much fiddling and ripping and figuring out where things were gonna go, I present to you, the finished product. Stitchy notes first as always!


Design: First Harvest

Designer: ME! :D


Fabric: 28 count natural raw linen

Fibers: DMC 347, 372, 676, 937, 938, 3830, and 3865.


I decided to stitch the tomatoes on the trellis with a mix of cross stitches and the dreaded French knots, with long stitches, whole and half cross stitches for the vines and leaves.

I chronicled the journey I took into making this sampler on my new blog, L'atelier de l'archange . Please feel free to let me know what you think! :)
