New Stitching Project

Last night I found a stitching project in my stash that I had barely started a year or so ago. The fabric was perfect for my new project, Drawn Thread's 'The Pastoral'. Of course I picked it because of the sheep.

I had found the last skein of floss I needed at the Stitching Place in Waterloo on Saturday. I unpicked the little bit of stitching I had done on the 28 count linen fabric and started stitching.

The pattern also gives instructions for a stitched 'pocket' and scissor fob.

I now realize I really do need a lighted magnifier and just saw one on sale at Michaels. That will be one of several places I shop today.
