this is a textile heritage kit
celtic knot scissor keep
i bought 3 items and this is one of them - a dear friend sent me a gift voucher for sew and sew and i had great pleasure in spending it - you know who you are my ole china :wink:
anyway i kinda altered the back - swapped the red and yellow around in the corners just so it differed slightly from the front
i enjoyed this
and and i actually stitched it in hand whoop whoop for me that in it self is great accomplishment and now i look forward to stitching the other 2 items you got to wait and see what they are

It's lovely! I've been looking for something exactly like that. Beautifully stitched. I'm sorry that the flu has made things so hard for you, I really hope that you get your full health and energy back soon.

:applesauce: So pretty and so well done. I hope you are over the flu. It can really wear you down. Don't overdo it until you know you are 100% healthy.

That is lovely. Good idea to start with something small if you needed a finish to ease you back in to your stitching after feeling poorly.

It may be a small finish but it's a fantastic one. I love the way you changed the colours on the back, I think the other way would've been too much red and contrast with the tassel. Hope you are feeling better.
