Cross Stitch - Finished!

Ta Da! Tuesday over at Faith Hope and Charity Shopping and it really is a bit of a ta da moment for me because -


(a)      not only did I finish a little bit of cross stitch

but

(b)      I actually pressed it and backed it on the same day!!!!!

 
The only problem is - I can't make up my mind whether to use it as part of a lavender bag or as the front of a little needle book.  Decisions .....!!!!!

 
Pop over to Lakota's blog for lots of wonderful things!

Love, Liz

Such a sweet design! I would have to make it into a needlecase as I would see it more that way, but that may be because I sew most days, but have my eyes half-closed when delving into drawers!

I really like your cross stitch. And to top if off you finished and backed it on the same day!!! I'm jealous..I've never managed to finish any of my cross stitch patterns. A good New Years resolution I think.

Think it has to be a needle case cover - after a bit of fast work, I wonder how long it will take me to get round to that!!!

Eek, so sorry I've taken so long to visit this post, just catching up with previous ta-dahs now. Good work, this looks like it could be just the right size project for me to attempt, I'm a bit scared of cross-stitch. Very pretty.
