Hello everyone
Just popping in to share a couple of works in progress today.
Here is the next stage of the “Tangled Frame” blackwork that I’ve been sewing along with Claire. You can see more examples on her blog here. I have an idea of what I’d like to do with the finished piece. Watch this space

Today, I’ve completed more of the narrow boat cross-stitch. There is a lot of black outlining to add so it doesn’t look like much at the moment. It will all come to life when the back stitches are done. This is part of the roof with flower pots and a dog on top
It is still a bit too busy for crafting at this end
Have a wonderful week!
