Pansy Needleroll by Shepherd's Bush

This is one of the older needleroll kit released by Shepherd's Bush! The fabric included is 32ct purple linen. The most difficult part of this one is the one-over-one stitching of the verse.

Snow Flower Sampler Accent by Periwinkle Promises

This silk kit belongs to the first year linen & silk kit designs. The fabric included is 29ct raw Cashell linen. Kreinik's Soie d'Alger silk was used. Specialty stitches include Holbein stitch (first border), double back stitch, long-armed cross stitch, smyrna, and upright cross stitch. the Holbein stitch can be challenging. I chose to work on this piece because January is still a winter month and I love snow. I was going to finish this when I was in Lake Tahoe this past Christmas. Just my longing for white snow!
