Crow Sampler Box

This was one of the most fun little patterns to stitch. 

It's a freebie from primitivebettys.  She is so generous 

and so creative.  I am a big fan of her designs.

Well, I stitched this on some 32 ct raw linen using

overdyed floss of Onyx and Palomino.  The box is

 covered with reproduction fabric and I lined the lid with

a vintage love letter and painted the inside a dark brown.

I love making strawberry fobs, so I made one

to match the box.  It's made from some antiqued linen

and has a brown herringbone wool top. 

It's supposed to be a beautiful weekend and I plan to 

do some more stitching outside in the garden. 

Just thinking of it makes me smile.

Wishing all of you a weekend full of smiles.
