Stitched with beautiful overdyed cottons, the summer lavender, hollyhocks, sweet clover, wild daisies and black-eyed susans in this design curve gently around a primitive lower case alphabet. I’ve used flosses in lovely summer shades, to give the look of gently aged vintage country stitching. My husband and I live in a cosy home in the country called Appletree Cottage. Within the acre of garden surrounding our house, the garden in summer is in full bloom, and the surrounding hedges and trees provide safe nesting areas and food for the birds. - Cathy
