I stitched this lovely whimsical girl a few months ago.
It was to be used as part of a folder
cover to commemorate the naming ceremony for my Great Niece.
It was done onto a vintage linen napkin with her name
at the side. The Pattern is one by Lilipopo
who does some really pretty bits.
When it came to actually
making the cover I decided that it didn't really suit
so made it with just her name cross-stitched on the front.
That of course meant I had this just hanging around
waiting for me to make something out of it,
as, lets face it, it was a waste not to use it.
So finally this week I have made it into a cushion
to take down with me next time I go West.
I have to say I'm really pleased with it,
I hope her Mum and Dad feel the same.
Have a good day.

As you should be! It's really beautiful.
