I've been tidying my room, and found all my old embroidery
stuff! I also found some aida, so I decided to have a go at a cross stitch
technique I saw a while ago but never tried out.
The idea you pin the aida to your fabric, cross stitch like
normal, then carefully pick all the strands of aida out. It was a lot easier to
remove than I was expecting, and I think I might do some more! Very tempted to
do some fried eggs I think, and use my own design this time.
For this sweet little lighthouse I used a pattern found on
this website. I've been living near the seaside the past 9 months, and wanted some kind of seaside-y motif on my plain shorts. I always like seeing lighthouses, so when I saw this pattern it made perfect sense!
What sort of things do you like at the seaside?
