Spring Knotgarden

After a long time I got Spring Knotgarden on the frame again. I have finished the triangles with the flowers last week and at the moment I am stitching part 5.

My (great)grandmothers and other female relatives are also hanging on the wall now. They are a bit bumpy because of the different linen fabrics I used in both directions without knowing. This is also symbolic in my opinion: so many women with different personalities working together without problems can't be possible.
I finished this Blackbird Designs 'Anniversaries of the Heart' project with a cross-stitch seam.

Your Spring KG is gorgeous! I am also working on part5-6, and I almost gave up, but finally managed to finish a half-side. There are some empty pieces from earlier parts to be finished, but it is so beautiful design.

Thanks for the Liebster!

What a cool anniversary piece. It looks antiqued already. And bumpy is exactly how it should look! Your KG is gorgeous too.

Hoi Ineke,
Je Anniversaries ziet er heel mooi uit. Daar zijn verschillende uurtjes borduren in verwerkt ... maar het resultaat is er naar!
Groetjes,
Ann
