My Apple Tree
Mojo Stitches
My Apple Tree
In the middle of a cold Winter and longing for a sunshiny day under the apple blossom, I designed this piece to remind me of happier days ahead. I’m not naturally an optimist, so this quotation by Martin Luther spoke to me – a good reminder of the power of our everyday, small choices to better the future. I hope it speaks to you as well – to value your power to choose the good every day.
Stitched 1 over 2, using full crosses only. Another stitching option would be to stitch the top, pictorial section alone, for a charming farmhouse scene.
Clear, black-and-white chart with a colour cover. DMC conversion included.
Floss used: Cottage Garden Threads 'Bookshelf' Edit (my collaboration with CGT). Colours used: JK06 Hot Coffee, JK05 Woodstack, JK09 Candlestick, JK02 Leatherbound, JK03 Bronte, JK23 Cashmere, JK14 Wingback, JK12 Conservatory, JK10 Woolf; DMC White. CGT threadpacks available to order from Cottage Garden Threads at Marketplace.
Fabric: 36-count 'Antique Ivory' by Zweigart
Stitch count: 131w x 131h
