I stitched this design for one of my neighbours who is moving to another flat within the next couple of months.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6" white linen card blank
Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackable' die
Maria Diaz 'New Home' chart (from Ultimate Cross Stitch Cards magazine)
14 count white aida
DMC threads
Snippet of white linen card
I used the largest die to cut an aperture in the front of the card blank. After stitching the design I trimmed the fabric before attaching to the rear of the aperture. I trimmed a snippet of white linen card and attached it inside the card to cover the back of the stitching.
I am entering the following challenges:
Ally's Angels - Anything Goes
Love to Craft - Anything Goes
