A Mon Ami Pierre Pinkeep and Fob

This week I decided it was about time I put together this pinkeep. I finished stitching it last summer and made a little scissor fob to go with it too using the centre motif of the design. I have also added my initials to the back.



The design is an A Mon Ami Pierre Quaker freebie which was given to me by a dear friend. I've stitched it 1 over 1 on 32ct Belfast Antique White Linen, using DMC 3750.

Thank you to everyone for all your well wishes. I'm still feeling so much better most days and I can't tell you how wonderful that is! :o)

Oh Carol it is just really really gorgeous and if you want to share the freebie chart I would love to have it please. Anyway I'm so glad you are feeling so much better. It's amazing how when you are you forget about how bad you felt which is equally wonderful. Lots of Love Patti xxx
