Beautiful, I love that tree!
And for my March entry (it’s got its own thread) My shield, a work of love. And a contribution to a community quilt.

Last year I purchased from Colonial Patterns a package of cotton dishcloths and embroidered veggies on them for drying dishes (dishwasher dead, waiting for kitchen renovation to replace). They were seconds, so I ended up with a few odd-sized ones. So I cut them in half to use as hand towels in the kitchen as my current ones are looking really sad.
I had this iron-on design leftover from something, so I’m using the same design for all, with different colored flowers. Very easy and quick project. Just perfect for the old recliner.
And having 4 curious four-month-old foster kittens helping me take pictures really made my day!

Here’s my March stitch! My children are my blessings (went the obvious route here):
My previous cross stitch family has been due for an upgrade for…4 years now. This one is for my MIL but next iteration will include me and Mr. Road.

I love all the beautiful stitches this month!
Here’s my offering, stitched from a sketch by the author of Birdstrips, whose artwork is all adorable and fabulous.
When I saw this it just made me so happy, and to extrapolate, it reminds me of all the critters that make this world amazing. I haven’t been lurking on LC as much because I’m in an animal-related graduate program right now. I’m getting through it and really tough subject matter thanks to animals and the community that cares so much about them.

This is adorable! I love the shading. What did you use? I am always so impressed by shaded embriodery but haven’t had the nerve to try it yet.

What did you use for shading?

Oh! I used colored pencil! I’ve used watercolors in the past, but they can be really challenging to contain on an absorbent fabric and I was impatient.

I’m glad you shaded! I always feel a little like I’m cheating when I add color.
I don’t feel that way if I dye the floss before stitching, but touching it up with sharpies seems like a dirty little secret.
Which is ridiculous–it’s my art and I can do what I want, right?
