Mrs. Claus' Merry Dresses (by LastingAllure) - 8 Dec

Post by msufly »

I purchased this design from Shannon (aka LastingAllure) in her Etsy store. Here's a pic of the whole piece:

From left to right, there's her winter coat, her baking apron, and her knitting dress. So far, I've stitched up the baking apron except for beads & french knots. I substituted Kreinik for DMC metallic gold in the dress stand.

Loving it! Thanks Shannon for a unique design!

What a cute little piece to be stitching -- especially this time of year. You are making quick progress. I can't wait to see the finished piece.
