Little Bits o' the Seasons
Fun and colorful little projects for all four seasons - each fits nicely into teeny frames from Olde Colonial Designs.
The color variation in the backgrounds come from using hand-dyed flosses and letting the colors appear as you work the basket weave stitch diagonally across the background space - very pretty!
