Country Cottage Needlework Santa's Village progress.

Santas Village

Hi everyone, here is my latest progress on Country Cottage Needlework Santa's Village, I am hoping to adhere to stitching one cottage a month, however I do seem to keep making mistakes and having to unpick my stitches on this one! I noticed that the bottom scroll had a gap between the first and the second house and I had to re-do the stitches, but I am loving the way it is coming along, the colours are so bright.

I am loving my Photoshop Elements 11 software, I have been designing  another free digital gift tag,  my latest is a corset/floral designed gift tag using old images and recolouring them, these will be available this week on Freebie Friday, so don't forget to pop back to download your freebie!   

Until next time - Happy Stitching!

It looks great Lynn.
I like the fabric color also, it seems to "pop" on that color.

If I hadn't decided to stitch from my stash this year I surely would have added these designs to my stash. Your village looks great and the population is growing.

It looks gorgeous Can't wait to see your next item. I managed to pickup some beautiful fabrics & swarovski crystal elements on sale for $1.66 a pack. I am doing the Sajou 4 Alphabet Pattern you did on a box. I hope it comes out good at the end with the fabric. Fabric was expensive.

Your village is coming along wonderfully despite what you say about the mistakes you make.

Its wonderful! The owner of our LNS is also stitching this and I can't wait to see it finished.

This is so pretty. I just ordered 4 of the patterns and can't wait to start. What color fabric did you use?
