It has taken me almost the entire month of January, but I have my first finish of 2018. It is a small finish, but it is a finish nonetheless. I am very happy that I have decided that I am only going to finish 12 projects this year. At this rate, I will be lucky to get the 12 per year unofficial goal obtained!
Well, at any rate, here is the first finish of 2018!
Design: Let It Snow
Designer: Barbara Ana Astray Mendez of Barbara Ana Designs
Fabric Used: 28 count natural/raw opalescent Cashel linen by Zweigart
Fibers Used: Anchor six strand embroidery floss in 02 and 103. Crescent Colours cotton floss in Caterpillar and Pink Champagne. The Gentle Art Sampler Threads in 0570 Bittersweet, 7013 Green Apple, and 0880 Punchberry.
Accouterments: Mill Hill Magnifica beads in #10001 Ice. White pom pom from Joann Fabrics and Crafts.
Stitchers' Notes: Substituted called for DMC for a conversion that I found many, many years ago. If I manage to remember where I found it, I will be happy to update this post in order to credit the stitcher that had the original piece. In the original conversion Cerise from Crescent Colours cotton floss in was used, however, I substituted this substitution for Pink Champagne.
Time for me to be off and away. I hope everyone is having a fantastic week. Happy stitching!
