~ Prim Pin Pillow ~

Hi there dear friends!  Thanks for your comments the last few days, it's ever so nice to chat with like minded sisters:)

Guess it's no secret that I've finally spent some time with the other man in my life, Mr. Singer:)  This was a fun and quick stitch, fabric is equivalent to 32 ct., turned out nice.  Will hang it off the key of our red blanket chest.  I found chart on the net couple of years ago, tried to find link today, but failed miserably.
 Floral Pin Pillow
Osnaburg (coffee dyed & severely distressed by me)
DMC 400 ~ one strand over two
Stuffed with wool roving
Back finished with hand dyed wool ~ color Steak Sauce

I've finished a couple more smalls, but alas ~ will have to wait for another day to share, as they're gifties and not yet mailed...

Thanks for visiting, wishing you a wonderful weekend and Sweet Stitchin...

Sue

    I just found your blog about a week ago ~ love your stitching and finishes! Have just now gotten back into cross stitching after a year hiatus (weddings, etc.) Also going to try to get my blog up and running again (been two years...)

    Adorable pin pillow! Could you share the pattern? Was it a freebie? Would love to stitch it myself.

    Happy stitching,
    Lauralee >^.^<
