A couple of finishes......
Here are my 11th and 12th finishes for the year - actually finished a finish which is something for me!
A freebie from Blackbird Designs stitched on 35ct Floba using a Ltd Ed silk from Thread Pickerz:
Souvenir de France by Blackbird Designs
And Red Riding Hood by The Primitive Hare stitched on 36ct Edinburgh using the recommended threads - except for the snowflakes, they are stitched using petite silk lamé braid for a hint of sparkle .
Red Riding Hood by The Primitive Hare
Next up to get finished is Hortus V.........

Like those!!! The cushion is so pretty, and I like Red Riding Hood very much
Are they French designs?

Re: A couple of finishes......
Great finishes! I really like the pillow. What a great way to finish a piece.
Re: A couple of finishes......
Excellent finishes. Is it me, or does the whole Grimm's Little Red Riding Hood seem to be undergoing a shift?
What's floba like to work with? (The finish is fabulous!)

Re: A couple of finishes......
Thank you all! Wendy neither design is French, Blackbird Designs are American and The Primitive Hare is Italian - but I totally get what you mean by the style!
Serinde I LOVED the Floba! This was a little test piece to see how I got on with it as I am planning on stitching a reproduction sampler next year and was auditioning fabrics. It is a fine fabric, with the look of linen but without the slubs and has a lovely feel about it. I know some stitchers don't see the point of linen mixes, but I will definitely be using it more in the future!
