Rose Cuttings

Post by eyestitch »

Hi! This is my first SAL so please bear with me :)
I picked up the Rose Cuttings kit by Sunset from Dimensions at JoAnn Fabrics about a month ago and just started last week.
Here is what the finished piece will look like:

And here is my progress so far:

(sorry about the poor lighting - I'll do better next update, I promise!)

I'm really happy with how it's turning out so far! I'm trying to sneak in as much stitching time as I can - with the kids and working it might be a little slow going but I'm hooked on cross stitch now so I'll update here as much as I can. :)

I haven't seen this before, but the colors you've started with so far look lovely - very bright and rich.
