I have been working on this beautiful cross stitch design the last two weeks. I love the simplicity of the design and the muted colours that are being used to stitch out the design.
At sewing last month, one of the ladies brought in several of her machine embroidery blocks and projects that she no longer had a interest in owning.
if I would finish it. All that needed doing was putting in the pink fabric that is behind the stitching and sewing around the block to finish it off.
This runner was done in a different way than usual. The longer sides of the white fabric were sewing to the green outside fabric then the rest was folded and sewn to form the shapes on the end then I sewed around the green fabric 1/4 inch from the edge. There is no wadding or pellon inside.
Happy days.

Your Church House sampler is very pretty, like you say lovely colours. The pink ladies look quite brash compared to it, very good of you to complete someone elses ufo! xx
I love the colours in the church house work, sort of genteel. And that elegant lady - you gave her life!
Good Morning Bev,
Another beautiful cross stitch. Love the colors.
Your table runner is perfect for tea time. What a great image too. I can see Her on all kinds of things.
I have one more UFO that needs to be worked on. You have reminded me of it.
Thank you for your wishes for my four legged boy.
Have a wonderful day Bev.
Blessings!
Such a beautiful cross stitch Bev. Nice the sweet lady was finally finished.
Love the x-stitch, Bev!! The Church Farm House is just my style. You've done a great job!
Great work with the cross stitch. And well done finishing a UFO that wasn't yours!
That is a lovely cross stitch design.
Love the colors!
