Grow Your Own - 30 hours

Hello all!

This month, for the first time since March, I spent some time working on Hannah Dale's Grow Your Own by Bothy Threads. This was a birthday gift last year and was intended to be finished this year, Well, that's not going to happen so it is now on the top of my 2021 to-finish list. Promise!

Here's how it looked back in March:


And now after finishing the lettuce leaf, and adding the juicy carrots and some of the radish tops:



What a difference the splashes of colour make. I'm really excited to be stitching this one again, and can't wait to get stuck into more of those juicy vegetables!

Sometimes I give the characters names when I stitch them. For some reason the name Walter popped into my head for this one. No idea why, but it stuck. Hopefully it won't be too long before you see Walter and his vegetables again!

Take care,
Rachel x

    I do the same thing with names haha. Or male and female. It just pops into my mind. Bloody Mary Dragon is a girl for some reason. Maybe the Mary part of the drink name. Who knows. I love the colors and the yummy veggies.

    You've made lots of progress. At this pace it will be finished this year, for sure.

    Walter looks great and he is happy to be out of the WIP Box and seeing some love. The addition of the vegetables does make it look good and I can not wait to see him hopping around again.
