I have started cleaning and found very old (at least 20 years) cross-stitch, I forget the name of book it was from but it was called "I Cry" I was not the best with the stitching, many friends can stitch circles around me. I did make many different ones from this book though. |
Round 4 is looks good! I love the cross stitch. I used to do a lot of cross stitch and still have some fabric like yours lurking.
ReplyDeleteYes it was relaxing to do and fun because of it can be incorporated with so many things, something about filling in those little blocks that I loved!
ReplyDeleteSize 80 thread?!! It must be almost invisible! The doily is so intricate and pretty so far. Love your little Indian girl.
