Little House Needleworks Rosie makes posies progress.

Hi everyone, firstly I would like to welcome my new followers and thank everyone for leaving comments on my blog, it is always appreciated. I am thrilled I have reached over 1300 followers, it is so nice to know you enjoy reading my little piece of the blog world! I considered doing a giveaway to celebrate but I am currently working on my 3rd blog anniversary giveaway for the end of July, however, I will certainly be doing one just to celebrate my followers a little later, maybe sometime in September.

Stitching news
I have started stitching Rosie from Little House Needlework and I have posted more pictures below.
I chose the cream fabric because I did not have any darker coloured fabric in the right thread count and I particularly wanted to stitch this on 32 count. To allow for the fact that I used the cream fabric I had to backstitch the bee and the flowers to make them stand out, but I think it looks ok.

Thankyou for your visit, I hope you have a happy stitchy week!

I won that bottle cap pincushion and still love it! I think some of your finished boxes would be a wonderful thing to be in your etsy shop. Don't know if the price would make it unfeasible, but your boxes are wonderful. Good luck with the etsy shop. I think it's a great idea!

Wow, you've made a lot of progress on Rosie. The bee is so cute! And I love your pincushions. They are darling. You could use regular pins or you could offer counting pins too. I've seen them lots of places, and they don't look hard to make.
