A single strawberry!

It's been one of those weeks where I haven't been able to get any stitching (or anything else, for that matter!) done. Ah, such is life. I did manage to start stitching yesterday on Etudes aux Fraises ....


....just one single, solitary strawberry.....


....but it's a start.....and does feel good to pick up a needle again!

As you can see, I decided on plain, crisp, white aida as the fabric of choice. I looked out some 28 count white linen, then decided that the old eyes really couldn't cope with it....not if I wanted to enjoy stitching this design....which I do!

Hopefully I'll have some more strawberries to show you next time!

Remember there still time to enter the giveaway for the chart of this gorgeous dandelion design ....


....details can be found here. I'll announce the winner next week.

Until next time...happy stitching!

It is a very pretty, solitary strawberry.

Even though it's just one strawberry it's sure a pretty one. Hope you can find more time this week.

This is going to be so vibrant when it is all finished, a lovely start. x

Lol, love your solitary strawberry. I think I must have a solitary geranium petal on mine :D Have fun working on this beautiful project.

Lovely strawberry !! The color shades are perfect :)

Well it's a beautiful strawberry! Sometimes a classic plain fabric is best. This is such a detailed design your colour choice will show it off perfectly.

It is indeed a lovely strawberry, and one less to stitch now.
