Hometown Holidays - Main Street Station



It's been such a long time since I wrote a blog post, I hope you've all been doing well.

I have a finish but not an ffo, I'm going to stitch a few more in the series then decide how I'm going to finish them.



Hometown Holidays Main Street Station by Little House Needleworks.

I absolutely loved stitching this. It only took a couple of weeks.

I used all of the called for DMC threads and used my own hand dyed tea coffee stained 28ct Evenweave.



I added the border as I'm thinking of putting them on canvas i just wanted to add something to the edge.

Started: 26.10.17
Finished: 05.10.17
Fabric: Hand dyed tea coffee stained 28ct Evenweave.
Threads: DMC 221, 869, 950, 3022, 3023, 3031, 3052, 3828 and Ecru.

I've been rubbish at keeping up with my cross stitch the past couple of weeks! I think I must have stitched for about the grand total of 2 hours in 2 weeks!  I have got so much to do before Christmas too!

I have finished 2 out of the 4 stockings that I am making for the kids (and 1 for my sister) and I am half way through the 3rd.  Then when they are finished I need to sew them together.



I have also cross stitched some baubles so I need to sew those together too.

At the moment I am making stuff for my business to sell at a few craft fairs that we have booked up between now and Christmas so that's taking most of my stitching time up.



Hope you are all well and don't forget to follow me on twitter @ThirtyishMish and I am getting round to making a facebook page for this blog too.
