Holiday Hoopla 4th of July Style
This pattern by With Thy Needle & Thread was much sought-after. I had to search several online sites as it was frequently sold out. The only specialty floss is whisper floss by Rainbow Gallery. This floss really brings out dimension to the beard. I modified the pattern a bit from the original. All other flosses were DMC:. 3771, 783, 322, 3781, 712, 304, and 930. I really like 304- it makes a fabulous red.
Jolly July Start and August Finish
This year I stitched along with The Fat Quarter Shop and The Real Housewives of Cross-stitch during July. I started this pattern by Little House Needleworks called Deer Valley Inn. I modified the pattern to suit the recipient. DMC flosses utilized 869, ecru, 3777, 434, 730, 3371, and 841. I plan to finish this piece as a pillow that will go in a winter holiday display.
Thinking of Cooler Temperatures
This will eventually be made into a small pillow that will decorate the table during the cooler months of the year. The cross-stitch pattern is by Little House Needleworks, called Hot Cocoa. Aida fabric coffee- tea dyed. The flosses are all the called for colors and all DMC (434, 801, 936, 3721, 3862, and ecru.
