Stacy Nash Trio for Lynette's Big Birthday in Australia

Last year Britta, Catherine and myself made a pact to each stitch a Stacy Nash project for Lynette's birthday, and today she send me an email that she received her parcel. Glad you love it Lyn, we loved making it for you (and you nearly did not get it!!) LOL.

The heart was made by me on  32/35 count uneven linen.

The needleroll was made by Britta who gave her permission to show it here, now start that blog soon girl!! 
Britta's needleroll is exquisite, 40 count linen and absolutely gorgeous. It is very small and she put string on the top so it can be rolled up.


I will only show you the back of Catherine's bag, it will be seen on her picturetrail soon,  it would be very unfair if I show her beautiful work on my blog, don't you just love the fabric! and you will love the front even more!!
 
We had such a lovely time making these smalls and a great idea for a stitchalong.
Have a fantastic day next week Lynette and we will raise a glass to your health, Big Hugs for you and Ron.

Thank you all so much for leaving the wonderful comment's, it is so inspiring. My blog is one year old this month and  I never realised that it would give me so much pleasure to show my needlework and look at yours, it's  a very pleasant pass time when I am not stitching :-))

Congratulations on a year of blogging! I enjoyed catching up with you today and seeing the great gifts you made and received. I love the Iffel Tower wallet. Ironing and rolling your linens is such a great idea! How do you store them?

What a great idea to make a set of gifts from one designer. I have just had a look at Catherine's album, but I can see the bag yet - hurry up Catherine :o))
