Yeah! We get another day in February!!! Oh what to do today? Hmmmm something special or maybe do a little bit of finishing work or go to my new Hobby Lobby!!!??? I like the sound of going to my new Hobby Lobby!!! I need a couple more wooden boxes for making into birthday gifts.
Here is an update of my BBD Breath of Spring SAL challenge to my blog followers. I did finish the stitching for my Breath of Spring last week. I went on Saturday to JoAnn Fabrics and found some very pretty backing fabric for it as well but did not find any lace like BBD had used on theirs. I am hoping that this cording that I found will do nicely for an outside finish.
The colors in the finishing fabric were nice pastel colors that matched the colors in the design. I did make one change on the chart though. The GA Chai floss for the bunny's tail did not show up on my fabric which is 35ct Vintage Iced Cappuccino so I substituted DMC 3865 for the tail color. I just used what fabric I had from my stash and only bought 3 or 4 missing colors for the project.
I hope everyone has a great day today! I have errands to run this morning and then will try to get this little project totally finished later on today.
Happy Stitching!
Yay Brenda! Your finish looks super and I really like the backing fabric you found for it. Today is going to be a catch up day for me. Enjoy your trek to your Hobby Lobby!

ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty fabric for this finish. It's fun to match the backing to the front.
