Relax...nothing is under control!


Another cross stitch for 2024 finished! This is something that doesn't usually happen ๐Ÿ˜œ!


I started this project when my baby boy was only one month old, I really wanted to cross stitch but I knew it had to be something very simple where I didn't have to concentrate too much as I was still adjusting to the interrupted sleep phase.

I'm very happy with the end result and I think the fabric I chose really brings out the design. To finish it, I'll put it in a plain white frame.

Le D - Monogramme Angel


First finish of 2024!

I love the design but I'm not completely happy with the way my stitching looks ๐Ÿ˜•. I worked this piece one over one on a 28ct linen and I feel that my white stitches are not as neat as they could be, this is not noticeable with the red and black.

If I ever stitch another monogram from this booklet, I'll do it on a slightly bigger count fabric (maybe a 25ct evenweave).
