Alessandra Adelaide Freebie Heart as of 22.04.13

I treated myself to a new start yesterday.  I've been desperate to start using some hand dyed threads which I've bought from a friend who is starting up her own business.  She is called Michelle and you can find her designs and hand dyed threads on her Facebook page at Joydri Designs - if you join the group please let her know you came from my blog.  So inside of taking the easy option and using one of the many charts I have in my stash I've decided to stitch an Alessandra Adelaide design which was free to members of the Facebook group.  Here's a picture of the finished design.

It's the design on the right I am stitching for the single colour.

So here's my progress picture after day 1.

I am stitching on 20 count aida and the colour is called nougat.  The thread I am stitching with is called Rascal's Rainbows and the colours are so vibrant I'm loving seeing it come to life.

Keep stitching and smiling
