Cath Kidston sewing kit progress...

Happy Sunday to readers and followers new and old.


Remember the Cath Kidston purse I am creating from her book Stitch? I have nearly finished cross stitching the front panel design. The crosses are made over plastic, dissolvable mesh. I don't think the stitches are as neat as using this method but it looks better the more I stitch. This came as a kit and I am slightly annoyed I have nearly run out of one colour and still have a flower left to stitch. I haven't wasted the colour so I think they should have allowed more thread. I will colour match with a different thread out of my stash.


It seems that there a few of you who share my love veggie gardens judging from my previous post. I have been giving my patch a bit of TLC lately.  Butternut pumpkins, broccoli and cabbages are thriving at the moment in this Aussie garden.

It's back to cooking pumpkin soup for me. Thanks for walking through my garden...

Great stitching, and well done on the lovely garden! I hear you on the thread shortage, it's VERY annoying when that happens...
