My Counted-CrossStitch work that was given to freinds: |
These are some of the counted-crosstitch pictures that I've completed. The content of the pictures was done by someone else, I just did the stitching.
The cross-stitch kits can be found at:
Dimension Designs
or: Jo-Ann fabric and craft stores
The next picture is entitled: "Woodland Enchantress".
This picture was Donated to Allison Care Center in Lakewood Colorado in honor of my Aunt
Elizabeth (Betty) Crossman.
I really like how her cloak is semi-transparent at the ends.
I wish the beadwork & gilded stitching around the edges of her cloak was more obvious in the picture.
