Pinkeep

Photobucket



It makes me happy when a plan comes together so I am doing a little happy dance away to myself here as Carol received her pinkeep from me today and she loved it - phew!! Relief as Carols stitching and finishing is something to live up too as its so perfect, so I am glad she liked mine to her.

The design is EEF (Ewe& Eye& Friends) and its called a "miniature basket (2nd in series)", I stitched it on 40ct alabaster linen. The back of the pinkeep I used a padded soft chequered fabric, the same as I used for the Garden exchange I did with mum in August.

Well I have been busy starting on Christmas ornaments as well as having a fairly active social life at the moment, Hope everyone is having a great week, its almost the weekend - yippppeeee!
