Stitch Maynia 2016 - Day 11 - Love Tapestry - Historical Sampler Company - 11.05.16

If you haven't heard of Maynia before please see my post from 1st May - don't want to repeat myself everyday and bore everyone..

My day 11 project is Love Tapestry from the Historical Sampler Company

Here is the picture of the finished design:


I am stitching this on the canvas included in the kit using the provided wools.

Here's the picture of the progress I made today:


And here's a picture of the back so you can see better what I've stitched.


And straight away with this piece I am reminded why I don't like printed tapestry canvas.  The straight line borders round the edges are out of line straight away.  There is a paper pattern of the design as well so I think I will be working from that rather than the printed design.  

Keep stitching and smiling

2014 Round Up


At the end of the year I like to go through my blog and see what I have accomplished over the last 12 months.  Here are my projects be they WIPs, UFOs or finishes that I worked on at some point in 2014.

Learning Sampler - Northern Expressions Needlework - WIP


Shades of Orange - Northern Expressions Needlework - FINISH

Seaside Mystery - Chatelaine - WIP


Valentine Peacock - KLT Charting - FINISH


Heart Tree - Jodyri Designs - FINISH

Celtic Banner - Butternut Road - WIP


Chinese Symbol Love - KLT Charting


Doodle Heart - Jodyri Designs - FINISH


Twisted Band Sampler - Northern Expressions Needlework - WIP



That makes 7 finishes for the year!  A lot more than I thought I had had.  That's why I like this look back over the year as it reminds me what I have done.

I'm joining in again with the Stitch from Stash challenge for 2015 so I hope you will all follow my progress through 2015 and see if I can actually stick to it this year.

I wish you all a wonderful New Year and hope it brings you health and happiness.

Keep stitching and smiling
