The first finish of 2025!


Design: Winter Wonder designed by Sweet Wings Studio

Link: Not available for sale until late 2025, this is a Sweet Wings Patreon design. Here is a link to Sweet Wings website: Sweet Wing Studio

Started: Wednesday, 18 December 2024

Finished: Saturday, 11 January 2024

Fabric: 28 count Monaco in the color Blue Glass

Fibers: Classic Colorworks Lettuce Leaf, Caribbean Waters & Aunt Marie's Violet. Six Strand Sweets Blueberry Pie. Weeks Dyed Works Sky & Peoria Purple. DMC 003, 828, 890, 950, 3863, Ecru and B5200.

Notes: I enjoyed stitching this Patreon design.  I have never been a Patreon member of a cross stitch designer.  I am thoroughly enjoying it.  I love the blues in this piece and love my fabric choice. This was a joy to stitch! Oh, I did substitute the called for Classic Colorworks Blueberry Tart for a Six Strand Sweet Blueberry Pie that I have in my stash.  I also used DMC 828 for the Classic Colorworks Blue Beadboard. I adore the floss choices of the designer, Susan O'Bryant! At one point I thought I was crazy because the quilt star in the lower left was wonky. I couldn't figure out where I stitched it incorrectly.  After some frustration I realized it was charted incorrectly!
