MELISSA'S UGLY DUCKLING


Today I want to share with you a pattern cross stitched/finished by my daughter-in-law Melissa. Melissa purchased this pattern in Michael's and it is a Dimensions Kit.
A Gold Collection Mini Petite titled "UGLY DUCKLING". She stitched it on 18Ct Aida Ivory and DMC Floss. The frame and mat was purchased from Michael's. The mat was a special cut ordered through Michael's.

It is always an enjoyment to see Melissa's cross stitching, she is a fast stitcher and does most of her own framing. She has a wonderful collection of Winnie the Pooh in which she stitched and framed herself. One of these days I will get pictures of her collection.

At this time she is cross stitching another Dimensions Kit with birds. This is a larger pattern and will be beautiful when finished. Can't wait to see it finished !

HAPPY STITCHING !!
