Seasons of the Heart -Spring Pillow

 Happy Friday! I want to introduce you to my Stitch-a-long I am hosting along with my friend Holly who is @Mrsjonesstitches on instagram. #seasonsoftheheartsal 

We are working on any or all of the seasonal pillows from the new chart by With Thy Needle and Thread, Seasons of the Heart. We both started with Spring and have finished but you can start where ever you would like. All you need to do it grab your supplies and start stitching along with us. 

I have finished the Spring chart and fully finished it into a pillow. I have a finishing tutorial linked here if you are interested. (*in the video I do stay to trim your stitched piece 1/4" away from the stitching and it should be 3/4") 

I stitched mine on 28 count Mushroom Lugana and I used the following colors:

Classic Colorworks- Ladybug, Blushing Beauty, Bamboo, Ye Old Gold, Perfect Piecrust, Tropical Paradise

Weeks Dye Works- Sandcastle, Oscar, Olive

DMC 840

Here are a few photos from along the way and the finished product is at the end. 

I hope you will join us and don't forget to use the hashtag #seasonsoftheheartsal
