Another timber cross stitch completed.
I picked up this Babushka by [make it] from the Craft & Quilt Fair the other day. I'll post a separate post about the fair later.
I was going to put a little scull and cross bones on her belly but decided I liked the strawberry design that came with the kit and stuck with that. I did add some beads I had on hand for the personal touch.
I like these little kits I really do BUT this one came with a kind of glaring issue... it's short one drilled hole on the second row from the top. I've only got 9 holes where there should be 10. So while the design still came out okay the top left just isn't quite right... }:-(
I ran out of red towards the end as I was using the whole 6 threads for better coverage rather than the 3 recommend so the last 3 cross stitches in the bottom right are quite messy as I had to use a couple of offcuts to finish the corner.
She's going to live on my bag once I get the right cord.
