"Paper Whites"


LHN "Paper Whites"
28ct Autumn Fields Lugana
DMC as charted
Flatfold Finish
Private Exchange for Mouse

I had an incredibly difficult time trying to decide on a LHN design to stitch up for Mouse!  LOL.  I was in a MAJOR stitching slump and everything I picked up just wasn't right for one reason or another.  I even emailed Mouse and asked if I could switch my designer but in the end I was "hit" with inspiration and I am happy to say it turned out exactly as I had planned! I have to say this is one of my favorite finishes this year and I am happy to say that Mouse loved it too!

I have to say thanks to everyone that left a comment for me on my last post......it's has definitely helped to keep me motivated to keep stitching!  I finished a LK exchange piece which I will mail out tomorrow.  I also finished a Fall themed design for another exchange but I am unsure on how to finish it!  Decisions, decisions!

I should be back shortly with more stitching to share!  It's my Birthday really soon and some great parcels have already arrived :)  Stay tuned!
