My grandson LOVES Easter eggs. This post is dedicated to this precious boy as it is because of him that I made the stitching choice that I did.
In deciding what to stitch in January of last year, I wanted to leave Christmas alone mostly because I love stitching Christmas-y stuff. A close second is Halloween. So Easter or Thanksgiving were strong contenders. I love my grandson so much so I went looking and this one screamed “pick me”!
How perfect! Stitching with Will’s sweet face in my heart I completed this design in early March. Remember what was happening in early March of 2020? Was very excited to get this done and wanted to rush it off for framing. World events aka COVID-19 got in the way. We also spent Easter apart as did millions of Americans. Never in a million years did I think it would actually be a year later before I could get this framed!
And yes! The finished and framed piece made its debut for Easter 2021, a whole year later!
Was so very excited to hang it on the wall for this year’s celebration. I don’t even think I’ve put it away yet over a week later. 😀
The charted model was stitched on 16 ct. White Chocolate Aida using DMC floss. I used 28 ct. Antique White Cashel Linen and DMC floss. Our Stitch Pack will be available using both fabrics, just specify at order which you’d prefer.
Would love to see what Easter pieces you’ve done or are working on.
