Stitching by Alexander

Wee Wooly
Cecilia Turner, c.1995 Heart in Hand Needleart


Alexander [youngest son] stitched this a couple years ago. He used DMC cotton floss on aida cloth. He selected a Mill Hill crystal heart & braided the lamb's collar. We made cording. Together, we started to complete the finishing -- and, it got 'lost' in Alex's room. Last night, I added the cord + lamb button.

Love the little sheepy pillow and the cute charm added. It's so satisfying to finish something off! I enjoyed reading about the EGA convention you went to. Would love to do that sometime.

How cute, he did a wonderful job. I'm glad that it was "found" so that the finishing could be done.

Alexander did a fantastic job stitching. He's a very neat stitcher. I need to take lessons from him. Congratulations on finding and finishing. Both of you did a really great job.
