Happy Monday!
I hope you had a great weekend!
I did some Spring cross stitch finishing today..A friend of mine on Instagram had 2 of these bunny charts and she asked me if I wanted one and she mailed it to me .. It was such a quick stitch I started it last night and finished it early this morning.. I found this frame at the Good Will for $1.99 ( it was gold ) and chalk painted it cream. I did a black gingham on the bias for the background and two different black check ribbons for a bow with a rose check covered button..
a little vintagy lace trim on the bottom and it is so cute!
Yesterday I finished up the small chart from Prairie Schooler Spring has come.. I found this frame at Hobby Lobby and took the clip off of it . It is one of those clip board frames. I used magnets on the back of the frame and small sheet metal pieces on the back of my stitching so I can stitch other small Prairie Schooler charts and use the same frame.
Then the Lizzie Kate February .. This frame is also from The Good Will 99cents.. it was also gold ...but chalk paint fixes everything! :)
I also did the magnets, sheet metal on this one so I can stitch all the months and have one for every month .. I better get busy on March :)
All of these are stitched on 28 count coffee/tea dyed evenweave..
Thanks so much for stopping by!

These are all so adorable, Priscilla! I stitched that first one for a friend--need to stitch him again for myself :) The little lace at the bottom of that one is so cute! Do you use chalk paint for all of your recycled frames? I'll have to give it a try!
I love all of these stitched pieces and the finishing that you did on them. Could you show a picture of the backing and mounting you use? It would be helpful. Thank you.
