I always forget about this SAL until I read Jo’s blog Serendipitous Stitching. This month’s topic is Houses, which is one of my favourite things to stitch. I have stitched 28 houses over the past 26 years, I'm sure these will not be the last!
My first cross stitch back in 1995 was called Summer Symphony.
New Home card for a family member in 1996.
Spindles and Posts - stitched in 1999
Proud to be on Duty - 1999
Grandparents Day - 2001
As Seasons Change - 2001
Down Main Street - I stitched these 3 stores for a friend in 2003.
Cantenbury Cafe - I designed this for my sons' basketball coach (2005) when they bought a coffee shop.
Gingerbread House ornament
Lighthouse - This was a stamped cross stitch kit that a family member had. I cut out the stamped area and stitched on 28ct, but still using the fabric background as a mat.
Amish Scene - I love this busy, colourful scene.
Victorian Dollhouse - Designed by Joan Elliott. I had a wall dollhouse like this in the 90's, so I definitely had to stitch this project in 2012.
3D miniature house ornament - 2013
Santa’s Village (12 houses) - Designed by Country Cottage Needleworks - 2013
Stitcher's Place - This was designed by Tiny Moderist for my old LNS (2015).
Beautiful collection of cross stitch cottage pieces.?
ReplyDeleteNice, nice, nice!! I love all your houses, especially the one of your local shop. What a great memory.
ReplyDeleteYou have quite a collection of houses. I especially like the doll house!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in The People's Choice this month. You have a wonderful selection of houses! I love the LNS, what a great way to remember the shop. I like how many US LNS are in converted houses, it's like visiting a friend.
