Winter's Eve

I think I am hooked!!  My latest finish is another Prairie Schooler design... "Winter's Eve".  I stitched this as my Feb ornie for the JCS SAL on FB.

"Winter's Eve" - The Prairie Schooler
Just Cross Stitch Christnas 2015

I stitched this design on a piece of Navy 14ct Aida.... I haven't stitched on Aida for so long so it was quite nice to do so for a change!

The eagled eyed amongst you may notice a mistake or two... and a change in colour!  The bunny and smoke are supposed to be DMC3022 but as I didn't have that in my stash I changed both out.  I think I should have used a darker brown for the bunny as he blends a bit in the snow!

The main boo-boo was just a bit too major to frog everything so I have left it.... for some reason the house is out and of course that put everything else out!!  I stitched the border counting from the roof and then when it came to doing the trees I discovered my error! Oops.... never mind I think it still looks ok with the tree tops right up to the top of the border! :o)

So what PS design next I wonder....

See you all again real soon (I hope!)

Pumpkin Man... my first PS!

Hi there!

Well after months of umming and aahing and ooing over all the gorgeous Prairie Schooler designs that I see around blogland and on our very own blog... I finally did it!  I stitched a Prairie Schooler design :o)

Let me present to you - "Pumpkin Man".

This design was published in the Halloween 2015 issue of Just Cross Stitch, and I have used the delightful Pumpkin Man as my February stitch on the Halloween Ornie Blog.

I may be late to the PS party... but now I am on a roll!  I am about to start "Winter's Eve" so I will be back in a couple of weeks to show you my next PS finish (I hope!).

Till next time, happy Prairie Schooler stitching
Hugs xx
