I'm on a roll!

Another from my finishing box, now finally finished!  As you can see from the date on the back I stitched it back in 2010.  I couldn't wait to stitch it up when I bought it, and can't believe how long it's taken to get around to making it up!


The design is A Quaker Pincushion from Carriage House Samplings.  I've stitched it one over two on 40ct Flax Newcastle Linen.  Again, like my last finish I didn't have any of the listed threads, so chose similar colours from my stash - Gentle Art Sampler Threads Brandy and Peacock, Weeks Dye Works Pecan and Polstitches Dragon Floss Sapwood.



It's back to my finishing box again to find another little project to complete!

Bye for now.   :o)
