Still here...stitching along

Hello! I'm still here working on my LHN in between other smaller projects. It is coming along slowly and I love it! You all are inspiring me to keep going on it! Hope to work on it a little tonight after the kids are in bed. Have a good day! Mere

Work in progress







I started from the frame, I prefer to stitch with the space defined.

Little House Neighborhood



These pictures should have been reversed as the bottom one is the before and the top is the after. I am still learning... I plan to take this piece with me to the stitch and chat tonight. I really want to finish The Last Supper, but its too big now to take along.

Finished... and Framed!

Stitched on 28ct. “Pearled Barley” Linen with the recommended DMC threads.
Framing by House of Stitches, LaPorte, Indiana



It’s been over five years since I’ve had anything framed. I knew as I was working on this piece that I would get it framed when I had finished stitching it, and so the framing of this piece was my birthday gift to myself. I had another frame in mind when I went to House of Stitches, but they no longer stocked the frame, so when I saw this frame, I thought it was perfect for the piece. Normally, I would get a piece matted when I get it framed, but the frame and the stitched piece itself was sufficient – I didn’t think a mat was necessary in this instance.

I must say that I’m really happy with how it turned out, and it’s now hanging on a wall in the living room in my new apartment.
