Summer Cross Stitch Book

I’d like to share with you the joy – yesterday I received my Lakesideneedlecraft Summer Cross Stitch Book 2020 from Kate Worthington, the owner of https://www.lakesideneedlecraft.co.uk/

There are 54 exclusive cross stitch charts from famous worldwide designers in the book. All projects are beautiful. However, I am especially interested in blackwork designs, that I haven’t tried before.

What is more, I received two new lovely needle minders with the book. I always order needle holders from Lakeside Needlecraft, and now I have two cats, a dog, a bird, and an apple in natural wooden colours.

Bear Slavic Horoscope

Bear is the last, 12th Slavic Horoscope sign at our shop.

The bear is the owner of the forest, but not the king of animals, not the king of all forests, steppes, deserts and mountains… just because the Bear was born lazy. What is more, he knows it and he got used to it.

It is considered to be the main in the forest because, despite its power, it is surprisingly simple and careless, indulgent to the weak, does not offend the small things, and is satisfied with the small things: to get honey, to lie in the raspberry thickets. We can only envy how cleverly he is arranged in his den, where he sleeps all winter.

Garden Sal

After finishing this great Garden Sal by Durene Jones design, I was looking for a suitable square frame for a long time and could not find it. Since I really wanted to have this stitching on my desktop in front of me, I decided to frame it i a hoop until I could find a suitable frame for it. What do you think about this way of finishing cross stitch projects?

Poppies Bunting

It takes me lots of time to finish new poppies garland, but it is finally ready. It made up of 9 red poppies and 8 green leaves with string, crocheted from 100% mercerized cotton yarn. the garland is perfect fo home decoration all year round.

All the garland is 170 cm (67 inches) long, each poppy is 7,5 cm (3 inches) in diameter and the leaf is 7,5 cm (3 inches) long.

Slavic Horoscope

So, we have a new Slavic Horoscope Sign – Beaver.

Beaver is a hardworkiing man, knows how to arrange his life, comfortable not only for him, but also for his loved ones. These people do not chase career heights, but despite the lack of aspiration, not bad succeed in life.

Beavers – singles, although for his family and children do a lot. They have a little friends, but Beavers value friendship and can help those who are in trouble. Usually these people are very rare to attract attention to themselves, although from time to time they like to give advice to others, which irritates loved ones. With age, beavers become even more withdrawn than in the active period of their lives, they love privacy, do not seek to communicate and travel.

For all Beavers, family, practical interests and material security come first, although they are rarely capable of intrigue to achieve their goal and someone to get around. They are silent, they rarely have a sense of humor, but friends appreciate their support and ability to come to help in any situation.
