A wedding gift - Sparkle and shine

 The Pattern is by Little House Needleworks

Quaker Birds

The Linen I used it Babbling Brook Jobelan

28Ct.

I changed the metallic thread to DMC

Silver.  I stitched the

first gold heart in metallic gold

and I did not like how it looked.

 I added swarovski crystals in

the plant holder.

 It is one of the

most beautiful pieces I have ever made. 
When the sun hits it, it sparkles like little diamonds.

 I did not

like the last ornament i made and

it did  not represent the work i do.

I looked through my stash and

decided i would do this piece.

We are our hardest critic arent we.

This piece screams wedding.  The 

finishing details jus complete this piece. 
 I am now proud to send this gift

out.  I decided i would send it for 

her bridal shower and not the 

wedding.  

The trim is done with pearls and tulle.

It matches just beautifully

 On the back there is a charm that says

Made with love.

The designing process to finish a piece.

I pulled different trims and ribbons 

and then slowly I decided what i thought

would look best.

I hope this gives someone ideas on a wedding

piece.

There will be a video showing the piece

in about  week showing the details.

Sometimes the photos just cannot pick up 

the sparkle.

YouTube video will be under

Cindys cross stich.

I hope everyone is having an awesome weekend.

Happy stitching.
