The second of our sneak peeks for the upcoming Needlework Expo is Love and Joy.
Love and Joy is a classic Christmas design using Gentle Art's Simply Wool threads. It's stitched on Weeks Dye Works' 32 count Parchment linen.
I finished this into a simple pillow with a chenille trim. The chenille is by Lady Dot Creates in Toast. I stuffed it will polyfil and backed it with a dark green cotton quilting print.
I'm already looking forward to putting this one out next Christmas! :)
Release date: March 6, 2021
I'm Robin, the designer behind October House. You've found my blog, where I ramble on about stitching and sewing and anything else that catches my fancy!
I love quiet colors, gentle stitches and making things by hand.
