It was beautiful in Philly today. Temps in the
50's and the sun was shining. With thoughts
of Spring on my mind. I finished stitching
this today. I charted it from an antique
pincushion. This is Assisi cross stitch. It is
a method where "voiding" is referred to
the background being filled, while the
motifs themselves are left blank ... or void.
I'll stuff it with sawdust and finish
it into a pinkeep. It looks so very
European to me.
Thanks for taking a look. Hope
the sun is shining for you too.
