AotH #8

Part #8 of the Blackbird Designs 'Anniversaries of the Heart' is finished. Because the name of my dear sister didn't fit I stitched it over one and added some more grey motifs to fill the empty spaces.

And then I decided it was time for a new start: Spring Knotgarden. I am stitching this beauty on antique white linen, using most of the recommended threads. The DMC threads are converted to NPI silks, except for DMC 519 which has no NPI match.

Thank you for all your lovely comments on the framed Frosty Knotgarden and the big toad. A lot of comments have disappeared while Blogger was restoring, so I hope I've read them all before the crash.
Tracy: it is mirogard museum glass on Frosty Knotgarden. This is almost invisible.

Lovely finish. Congrats.
Your new start looks already very promising.

Het ziet er weer prachtig uit, het is leuk om toch verschillen te zien op de verschillende blogs terwijl jullie allemaal hetzelfde patroon volgen.
Jammer dat blogger 2 dagen alles door elkaar heeft gegooid maar gelukkig doet alles het weer.

Groetjes Yvon.

Your new AotH project is so beautiful with those muted colours.

Yay, you started Spring Knot! This is going to be a beautiful companion piece to Frosty and Summer Knot.
