Floral Tapestry

Thursday 8 September 2011
I've been working on this floral tapestry for a little while now. It's the second one I've done, do you remember my first one? My mum managed to pick up a second hand standing frame at the car boot so I have been using that to complete it - it's soo much easier than a hand-held frame, much quicker! 


The pattern is a CK design from her book 'Stitch'. I had my eye on making it as soon as I saw it, and I think I will now have the perfect spot for it as a cushion cover for the armchair in our new house :) 
pssst... I also noticed on Amazon that she has a new book 'Patch', coming out this November, just in time for my birthday :) I'm sure we can expect more inspiring and cheerful projects to come!

    The embroidery is gorgeous.. I've looked at that page in my CK book quite a few times. It really is a gorgeous cushion cover, very pretty.
    I also saw that she has a new book coming out, just in time for my birthday in november as well! :-)

    What a lovely tapestry!! I have that book I'll have to put it on my "to do" list.

    I've pre-ordered the new CK book she also has a cute knitting kit and a crochet kit in a tin that's on my wishlist too!!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog....
