Souvenir de France









fabric: 100% cotton evenweave 28ct
floss: Carrie's Creation Thread "Wedgewood"

I love the pattern at the first sight. As soon as I saw the chart being posted this morning, I started stitch and I finished it! Oops, did I have lunch today?

Thank you so much Barb and Alma!

Fabulous finishing! I have some lovely French postcard themed fabric in my stash and it will make the most darling little knock off of your finish. :)
