My Thoughts
Lucky was the January 2026 free stitch of the month for Primrose Cottage Stitches’ newsletter subscribers (now available on their website). I am a sucker for St. Patricks Day, a nod to my Irish roots; and also a sucker for sheep, a nod to my Nana who raised sheep and used the wool for a variety of fibre arts! So, this design was a must stitch for me! I absolutely love how it turned out, and still stands as my favourite pillow finish. Proof that a stitch can be little and still have a big impact!
