The first one was given to Nancy K. for the "And A Forest Grew" exchange on the USEBB. I really fell in love with this design from Cross Country Stitching magazine and I knew that Nancy was a fan of primitive designs. I really enjoyed stitching this one and my daughter came up with the novel idea of using twisted paper and raffia as the edging materials.
The second exchange that I made was for Chris
for the "Freebie " exchange on the SBEBB. I chose to stitch Little House Needleworks Garden Gameboard. I made it into a tote bag. This was a challenging and time consuming project and I'm proud of how it turned out.
Thanks for reading my blog, and please know that I really appreciate your comments.
Both exchanges are gorgeous, congratulations!
