Garden Exchange for Cari
10 February 2006 7 Comments
Hooray! I just found out that Cari received the garden exchange piece that I stitched for her safe and sound, so now I can share a picture.
It has been a while since I finished this piece (If I remember right I finished it way back in November!) and all of its specs are on my hard drive at home, but I will share the information that I can remember. 
The pattern is from a pair of bookmark patterns called “Nature’s Beauty” by Robin Kingsley and is available from FreePatterns.com. I stitched this little birdhouse on 11 count per centimeter pink Evenweave and finished it into a flat-fold using Kim’s flat-fold instructions.
It was a quick stitch but that didn’t make it any less enjoyable to stitch and considering that this was the first time I did a flat-fold, I think I did a pretty darn good job. 
All in all, I must say that I really liked this finishing method and I am sure that I will do it again in the future.
