I recently participated in my first Stitched with Love exchange. The theme was Fall into Autumn. I sent a package to one partner and received from another, lots of fun.
For my partner,Cherise, I stitched a pattern from Helga Mandel called Autumn Pinkeep. It was in one of my old The Gift of Stitching e-magazines. It is no longer available on her website. I finished it into an ornament that Cherise can hang in her kitchen or in a window. The back is covered with burnt orange fabric and I used jute to cover the edges. The exchange required some additional stitching items be sent as well. I added some floss, patterns, beads, fabric and a packet of Bohin needles which are my absolute favorite needle for cross stitch.
In return, I received a very generous package from Becky. Lovely fabric, patterns, floss, aida, evenweave, tissue, note pads, patterns, and a beautiful fall stitched piece of trees. Loved every bit of it. Thanks so much, Becky!!
Enjoy!!
