I decided to go with another blackwork based design for our next project, this time choosing leaf shapes with a lovely tracery pattern in green that makes up the patterns. Today, the pdf file for the border is available for you to download, along with all of the details you will need for this design. A leaf motif will become available each week, for the next 9 weeks, on my Website Wednesday Blog page for you to stitch.

I hope you...

This is the last motif for my pretty Spring sampler that we have been working on for the past 9 weeks. Stitching time does 'fly by' but, it does mean that we have another one to look forward to, a Blackwork Flower sampler, which, I do hope you will enjoy as much.

Not pleasant weather here in the UK this past week, but hopefully warmer weather will soon be with us and I hope you have all found time do some...
