Lovely patterns Sharon! The fabric is just beautiful as well as the patterns.
Love these colours Sharon! I've never stitched on counted thread cloth before but the texture looks wonderful. I'll give it a try.
I hope you don't mind me asking this here, but I've tried several times to sign up at Stitchin Fingers and never got a confirmation email.
Any chance you could send an invite, please? Thanks very much.
