After years and I mean years of working on and off on this rework piece, I finally pulled it out and finished it. The pattern came from a Country Living magazine back when they would publish patterns and building instructions.
Here is my Instagram close-up.
I now need to make it into something to use. Probably will be a pillow. These pillows are inspiring me. Okay, NEVER MIND! I thought I saved photos of some beautiful grain sack pillows. Even with the ease of Pinterest, I can't locate them. Maybe I didn't hit "Repin". Now, it's going to bother and frustrate me. It's funny how I seem to remember things that I can't locate and forget things that are right in front of me. Oh well, here's another pretty Red Work piece.
Look at how sweet this little girl is. I love the inclusion of the fabric.
Very nice! I still need to do something with the one I finished too. And...get around to stitching some of the other things I had planned on. So many things to do and so little time! :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful...I would frame them! I need to pull out some stitching that I have going on...Christmas things that I try to work on starting every fall, and then never get done in time! lol!
