I wish all of you much happiness on Les Muguets Day (even though I am a little late). In France May 1st is the fest of Les Muguets. One gives a bouquet of Lily of the Valley to one’s friends. I made this bouquet for a friend of mine. It is a free pattern from Ellen Maurer-Stroh. It was done on 32 ct. lamb’s wool linen with DMC threads. The little pillow turned out to be about 4″x4″. My friend really enjoyed receiving it. I love having small little seasonal decorations for the home. Don’t you? And all the small cross-stitch patterns are perfect for quick completion and almost instant gratification.
I DID finish my needlepoint Lily of the Valley Collage, but it is not framed yet, so I will save that one for the next post.
Thanks for always visiting. Amities, Averyclaire
