I don't have much left to do. I was always planning to make it a cushion, but lately I have
been thinking maybe a wall hanging instead. Please offer your opinion either way....I just can't decide now haha!! This pattern is called "#78 Heaven and Nature Pillow" and is by Bareroots. I did Google it but with minimal luck, so I think it may be out of print now.
I like the soft colours in this stitchery. I have a cream and celery green small check bit of fabric in my stash that I think would make a perfect border OR ruffle, depending on whether it ends up a cushion or wall hanging. My home has 3 "themes", although they are all just minimal bits here and there, nothing too in your face.
I have seaside stuff (my little home is near the sea), Raggedy Ann, and Angels. Eccentric, that's me!!
Here is the original pattern, which I love. I personally find the outer border to be very pretty, but a bit too "busy" along with the rest of the stitchery for my personal taste, so I plan to skip that part. So....please leave me a comment...should it be a wallhanging or a cushion? I have equal room for both. Thanks! xx debbie
Lovely stitchery. I love Bare roots designs. Hard to decide either would be lovely.... I know not much help. Lol.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by. I love Bareroots too, but I still think yours are just as gorgeous. You always get the Teddies just right. xx debbie
Deletewall hanging - you have heaps of walls - use them! I know you want to adopt some of my things for your walls - but thats not happening! LOL
ReplyDeletecheeky girl...:)
DeleteVery pretty design. I think I'd want to be looking at it-so wall hanging is my choice.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy however you finish it.
Thank you, I think it will be more visible as a wall hanging too, so that is the plan. xx debbie
DeleteI think its very pretty and would look great on the wall
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, they do have the cutest designs. I can't draw past a stick figure myself lol. xx debbie
DeleteBeautiful stitching and I think it would look great on the wall.
ReplyDeleteOn the wall seems to be getting the most votes, for sure. Thank you xx debbie
DeleteBeautiful stitching and I can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteThank you for that. I love to stitch but I never think I am that good compared to others...xx debbie
DeleteIt's going to be pretty whatever you decide. As I just finished making two journal/scrapbook covers, I can see it making a very pretty journal cover as well.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good idea too, thank you so much. xx debbie
DeleteOh Debbie... this is going to be gorgeous!!! LoVe it!!! Thanks for sharing my mint slice at FnwF...lol :)
ReplyDeleteNo wonder my skirt was tight this am...blaming it on you but it was delicious just the same . xx debbie
DeleteVery pretty pattern and so many hours of stitching. Maybe it will have a longer life span as a wall hanging to be admired every day.
ReplyDeleteI think that is a good idea too, thank you for helping. xx debbie
DeleteYep I'm all for the wall hanging :) I have this pattern in my stash so it is lovely to see it made, such sweet colours :) Feel free to ignore our suggestions Debbie, it is your project :)
ReplyDeleteCool that you have it too. Have you made it yet? I changed the colours around a fair bit myself. Part of it was being lazy and not wanting to change the thread (sshhh don't tell anyone I said that)! and part of it was I didn't like for example, the angel wings. Mine are variegated blue. xx debbie
DeleteAhhh. Decisions, decisions. I think I would like to see it as a wall hanging. It will show off the embroidery more than as a cushion. But whatever way you decide to go it will be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you Marilyn. Maybe I will have something for show and tell...xx debbie
DeleteBeautiful...a wallhanging I think
ReplyDeleteThank you Peg, wallhanging has certainly gotten the most votes. I think that is a grand idea. xx debbie
DeleteIts such a pretty design - I'd be pitting it up on the wall too.
ReplyDeleteoops - putting - please don't pit it at the wall...
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking a wall hanging..I love the stitchery pattern..
ReplyDeleteThank you Lyn, I am so happy to be this close to a finish as I have had the pattern for years!! xx debbie
DeleteI love Bareroots patterns and you've done a fab job! I would go with a wall hanging too! but have you got space on your walls??? Either way, it would look great! I wouldn't say your eccentric.....just eclectic...a cool style to have!
