Spot of Spring
A second finish for the project challenge. I started this a couple of days ago when the weather was very spring-like. I was out in the garden on Friday, weeding in just a shirt and jeans. Not today - it's snowing again! Really, what's up with the weather?
Anyway, here's Spot of Spring by Drawn Thread stitched on 36ct Pipi from Countrystitch.
And here's the whole thing. Just summer to slot in when that season rolls round and then I'll hemstitch it and make a little bellpull.

This is looking gorgeous Nicki.
ReplyDeleteIt really is so pretty. I am very ready for Spring :-).
ReplyDeleteI'm working on this at the moment, yours looks lovely as a bellpull!
ReplyDeleteHope it brings Spring to us :)
It's beautiful Nicki, I love the idea of finishing them all together! I really wish I'd done that with mine.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you finish this one. Great progress so far.
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous, love the idea of these as a bell pull.
ReplyDeleteI really love how you're working all the seasons like that. It looks great! Too bad snow crept in. That doesn't seem fair.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stitching Nicki. We really are having odd seasons just now. Last year up here our daffs were all done by March and this year they are only just coming out.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! And also love your new Long Dog sampler, that red is stunning!
ReplyDeleteYour bellpull is looking great - I'm hoping summer isn't going to be as yucky as it was last year! Spring is crazy here isn't it - I was weeding in shirtsleeves on Friday as well, and had to turn the heating up on Sunday with all the snow! Love your start on St Reatham - (chuckling at Streatham!)
ReplyDeleteA very pretty finish Nicki. Looking forward to seeing your bellpull completed in the Summer.Good start on St. Reatham, (my son used to live there!) don't envy you stitching over one on a train!
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Nicki, and I love the project as a whole!
ReplyDeleteAs for the weather ... we woke, again, to frost!!
This is such a lovely piece of work - I really like how you will have all four together. Hope summer rolls around faster than the spring is doing here. And congratulations on your year anniversary of being back home.
ReplyDeleteNicki, I love your new banner!
ReplyDeleteYour Spot of Spring is adorable. :) (can you believe it snowed in Paris a couple of days ago?!)
Luv your Spot of Spring. I have all of those patterns & never did stitch any of them!!!
ReplyDeleteWe have snow flurries now -- it is discouraging as the crocus flowers were beautiful this a.m.
Oh, it's so pretty! Congrats on another finish!
