Hello friends !!
Few months back , I had cross stitched this floral table runner but did not share as the lining for same was pending for a long time . I stitched this on a left over 11 count aida patch . I took the pattern from Anchor Needle n thread magazine from India . The pattern was for a flower vase wrap . I used the theme and changed colors and also the placement of few motifs according to my choice .
I added a double crochet border with Anchor pearl cotton size 20 with rounded edges. I wanted to keep a simple border for this , kind of , just an outilne . I have just washed it and not done any blocking .
The twinkles on the right side are the reflection of the chandelier . I like this runner, simple yet stylish....isn't it ?
We are gearing up for hot summers in India with temperatures already touching a maximum of 40 ° C ( 104 °F ) There would be a rise of another 7-8 degrees to touch the peak . The schools are running half days and summer vacation will start from last week of April until mid June .
Yesterday , I tried the bullion stitch in crochet but everytime it turns out to be too frustrating . I have tried many techniques and tutorials from the internet , but just few stitches go fine and then again it is Urgghhhhh ! Have you made bullions in crochet ? Tell me , if there is an easy way to do it .
Do write in .
Happy week ahead !!
