September’s Cottage – framed

October 3, 2013 by Carole 6 Comments

This cottage was one of my least favourites when I originally stitched it, but I like it a lot more now it’s got its frame around it. I think it was too red before and I prefer it with more brown.

I’m getting through these quite fast now. It’s helped a lot doing prep on them such as cutting all the batting to size and ironing on all the interfacing. All I have to do is pull out each one and the fabric is sitting with it, with the backing cut to size. All I have to do is cut the linen and the Honey Bun and put it all together.

The poles they’re on are looking good now. I’ll take a final photo of them all hanging up once I have the last three finished.

oh yes, that’s the perfect colour for the frame, I know what you mean about too much red but this frame has really toned it down – looks fantastic 😀

  Thanks 🙂
  Getting that Honey Bun was definitely the right idea. The colours in it have been great for all the cottages and it’s so much easier using strips.
