Fabric Choices


With fabric & thread selected it was time to make a start.  Last night saw me trace & begin the first stitchery.   I decided to keep it simple & just use two fabrics for the stitchery borders...or I'd probably still be at the fabric shop....LOL!!
Hope you all having a great weekend.
Cheers....Jane.
