This first teacup was a real challenge! Lots of mistakes and unpicking! But in the end it looks great! The second one was a breeze once I got my head around it, absolutely loved this project!

I have continued to stitch on a piece of waxed brown paper and I have discovered that hand stitch alters the surface of the paper, far more than machine stitch. I have rubbed Treasure Wax on to the central part of the hand stitching.

Loosely copied from a vintage children's bedtime sampler. Made it as a thank-you gift for incredibly hospitable friends whom we recently visited.

Belated Christmas gift. I'm guessing this is probably from the 1970's or early 1980's. It's quite large (12 x 18-ish). I'll frame it; it will look great in my green room!
Stitched with Kreinik silk and metallic threads. Easy project, stitches quickly. Made for a sampler collector. Would be nice gift for a school teacher too. From www.kreinik.com/shops/Cross-Stitches/
