I couldn't resist to post a comment today, since cross stitch is one of my passions. In fact, I myself embroidered the third one you showed with plates and tulips! Actually, I embroidered two for two sisters. And believe me, they didn't cost only £1.49! Lucky you, indeed. Lots of love from Portugal.

The dresser top is very charming in its neat simplicity - that would look lovely framed in a dining-room area. That last one is amazing and a great many painstaking hours certainly went into its creation. I love the way the subjects come out of the frame and the 3D effect of the cloth at the bottom, very clever and beautifully made! I used to do lots of cross-stitch before my passions for crochet and photography sort of took over! Also, all that tiny stitching is hard on the eyes.<br />Have a lovely weekend!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015603838340372502noreply@blogger.com
