Happy Baby Shower! A Cross Stitch Update.

One of my good friends is having a baby and she is doing a Woodland Themed nursery. I knew I needed to make her a decoration for the nursery that would fit and I had just received a book called “Cross Stitch for the Earth” that would have a perfect pattern for it!

This was done on an 18ct Linen that is more of an off white cream color. I also have been learning how to frame my finished cross stitches, so I mounted it on foam core with stainless steel flat head pins, found the frame at my local small business frame store (shop small, shop local!) and then finished it off with craft paper, wire and hooks for hanging, and foam padded corners to make it lay straight.

I’m so excited for my friend’s upcoming bundle of excitement. She is gonna be the best mom.
