Summer Witch Stitchy
Isn't this Summer Witch the cutest and sweetest!!!
I loved stitching her, even with mistakes and all.
I actually call her The No-Neck Summer Witch due to the fact that I forgot to add the one single cross stitch for her neck; and I wasn't about to rip it 🐸. I discovered my error when I was doing the final stitching which happened to be the hair.
I used Priscilla's finishing inspiration with my own touches. I mounted my stitch project over a 4"x4" chipboard coaster covered with quilting batting; and the rest I simply followed Priscilla & Chelsea's finishing touches on YouTube tutorial.
I made a yo-yo flower from fabric on hand.
I did changed the floss colors that the chart asked for. The chart is a freebie and one of a series by The Snowflower Diaries.
All of the supplies used here come from my craft room stash. I love this kind of projects that do not require me to go shopping for. As you know I do craft & thrift stores and garage sales shopping, and I buy things that I think I can use for a future crafty need.
My first Stitchy Witch was the SpringWitch, which I just realized I never posted:
My sister loved it so much, so I gave it to her.
Since I knew she would like the Summer Witch, I went ahead and stitched an extra one just for her. I'm almost done finishing it, and making it in her choice of colors. So you will be seeing that in a future post.
Now if only I can get back to stamping!!!
