Windmill

Posted by fayesplace

This charming little windmill chart came from the May 2016 issue of Cross Stitch Collection that I have subscribed to. Readership must have really fallen off because they are discontinuing the magazine.

I chose to not use the Home Sweet Home text and made just the top portion. The chart was fast to stitch but the backstitching took a lot longer. I don’t mind backstitching but I know many find it a chore so just keep this in mind if you decide to make one for yourself.

Have a great weekend!

This pattern comes from this month’s edition of Cross Stitch Collection. Unfortunately, they just announced on their Facebook site that the March 2017 edition is the last one they are producing.

It was a lot of fun to stitch. Have a wonderful weekend.

I recently finished these two fun stitchery’s.

Here is the first one that came from Stitch | Craft Create Ideas. It, as well as several others, can be found here. Just follow the directions to download your own set.

Here is the second one that is a Lesley Teary creation. It came from the Cross Stitch Collection, Weekend Collection No. 31. I don’t have a link to it but wanted to show you how cute it turned out.
