Gentle Stitches

                              Gentle Stitches by Shakespeare’s Peddler

This piece was designed by Theresa Vanette/Shakespeare’s Peddler and released as a kit in 2012.  It was stitched with Crescent Color Works fibers (now called Classic Color Works) on 36 count Linen by Weeks Dye Works.  I made one change:  I added beads between the row of button flowers and the words.  Adding the beads reminded me why I seldom add beading:  they are very tedious.  The piece will be finished into a needle roll and will play nicely with my Shepherd’s bush needle rolls.
