Birdhouse Sampler complete

Last week I finished the Birdhouse Sampler....ahhh...such a joy to stitch. As soon as I'd finished I wanted to start another one straight away ^__^ The colours are just so soft and pretty...





Stitched on Zweigart 28 count Ivory evenweave using DMC threads and Mill Hill seed beads.

I've also started work on the Antique Animal sampler...


It's coming along quicker than I imagined :)
The Weeks Dye Works threads are lovely...I think I may need to order more of certain colours but I'll see how I go for now ^^

      I've recently found the 'macro' function on my camera so I have a slight obsession with close-ups at the moment :)
