New in the Etsy Shop

 Love, Hugs, and Ladybugs is now in the Etsy Shop. 

Etsy Shop

This pattern is part of my Ladybug series that is being released.  At this time there is a total of 5 designs with 2 charts already added to the shop.  The first Ladybug pattern was Love Bug. 

Both models was stitched on 14ct hand dyed Zweigart fabric.  I dyed the fabric with Rit Dye. I used colors Lemon Yellow and Marigold.   The fabric turned out absolutely B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L !

I used all DMC floss to stitch this pattern. DMC floss included : 310, B5200, 321, and 972. 

I finished both patterns similarly.  I started with  two red Baskets from PopShelf.  I added red rick rack  between the aida stitch board and the black with white dot back board. 

 To finish off both pieces I added cute little ladybugs from Hobby Lobby which I found in the floral area.  The Ladybugs come with floral wire attached to them. They cost $1.79 each in my area for 4.  They really add dimension to these pieces.
