My Thoughts
Sweetly Sayin’ – Stitching is the perfect craft/stitching room piece! It is the April free stitch of the month from Primrose Cottage Stitches, if you missed out, they go up on their website the following month. I highly recommend signing up for their newsletter, so much value for free!!
I customized this design to match the Stitching Quilt, I used all called for DMC colours and then added the two turquoise colours! It was a lot of fun using my creative brain to pick what parts of the design to change colours! I am so happy with how it turned out!
