The Towne House

Completed Project

Earlier this fall, I started a cross-stitch project.    Usually projects will take me a year or more, but this one was smaller than the patterns I've done in the past.  I worked on it while the kids were in art class & writing class, and in the evenings.

I got the pattern out of the November '08 Cross-Stitch & Needlework magazine.

Here it is, before I back-stitched it

And completed

So what should I do with it?  Make a pillow?  Frame it?  Some other kind of wall hanging?  A table runner?  I just don't know!  I'd love to hear your ideas!

I'm a cross-stitch fan and this is beautiful. I love the way the back-stitch brings out the picture. A table runner for fall would be good - or maybe a cushion if your room would allow for those colours?

I love it. The outline stitch really makes the picture pop.
