I pulled my strawberry decorations out a few days ago. I haven't cross stitched in maybe over a year, but I still enjoy getting out my stitching to decorate for the seasons.
Most of my cross stitching with strawberries is from Stitching with the Housewives.
The wooden backers came from Chantelle's 141 Design Company. I attended a retreat in Michigan put on by Chantelle a few years ago and bought some of these backers then. Some I've ordered from her website.

The Year in the Hoop cross stitches are from Small Town Needleworks. You can find their patterns on Etsy. The summer jam pillow is a free pattern from Priimrose Cottage (I think),
This is another barn backer from Chantelle. Painting these backers was a lot of fun.
I don't have even a small quilty item to show with strawberries. I might have to remedy that soon.
Sometime I'll have to show you the things I have cross stitched but not yet finished into something I can use. There aren't enough hours in the day, and right now I am doing a lot of quilting.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit.
I hope you're finding some time to stitch today.
Your strawberry collection is adorable. I used to cross stitch too but quilting overtook it.
ReplyDeleteHi Donna I cross stitched for a couple of years, but I'm back to quilting. I'm like you: the quilting overtook the cross stitching for now.
DeleteYou have such an amazing strawberry collection. Oh yes, you do need a strawberry quilt :) It I always fun to start a new project. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Melisa, but I think I need a strawberry quilt even if it's a small one. I might have to copy the strawberry pattern i saw on your blog and make a few blocks. Thanks for stopping by.
