Well my little grey cottage is finished and I am so glad I didn't use the metallic braid it called for. There are tons of beads on here and the only metallic I used was the white for the snow and the snow on the roof and that's plenty. I did it on a pewter 25ct Lugana and I like how it turned out but now I wish I had used a higher count so it would of been smaller. I'm still pleased with it and it will make a great Christmas decoration when framed.
This one is going to be my next project. It's called "The Three Spinners" by The Little Stitcher. I started it once before but didn't like the fabric I was using so I'm starting it again on a hand dyed 32ct.
I love this designer....she has some very original designs and if you like primitives, you might want to check her out. I get her designs at Stitch & Frog if you're interested in seeing other designs of hers.
I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. We did yardwork last weekend so this one I can relax and do some stitching and sewing.
Blessings, Barbara

Very sweet Barbara.
I am working at clearing the garden beds bit by bit.
Congratulations on your winter cottage finish! I really like it on the pewter fabric.
