Valentine's Flip It - Lizzie*Kate

Design: Valentine's Flip It
Designer: Lizzie*Kate
Threads: DMC and various overdyes
Fabric: 14 count aida, tea dyed by me

This little cute and cheery design needs the charm attaching, but I thought I would share it anyway.

As far as I can remember, I used the charted DMC conversions and also some of the new DMC varicoloured threads. I really ought to keep notes ...

The fabric was part of a batch tea dyed with my own fair hands, and I have a couple of other pieces to stitch others in this series with.

The series will be framed in simple pine frames from Ikea, to go with the original monthly Flip Its I stitched.

St Patrick's Day Flip-It - Lizzie*Kate

Design: St Patrick's Day Flip It

Designer: Lizzie*Kate

Fabric: 14 count cream aida, tea dyed

Threads: DMC and Kate's Kloths

I took this piece to a Bookcrossing meet, and had a fascinated audience as I stitched and chatted - mainly children, but some adults!

The aida I dyed myself in some strong tea. I used DMC threads for the lettering, hat buckle and hat, and Kate's Kloths hand dyed threads for the shamrock, hat band, and border.

This piece will probably go in a small pine frame to match the monthly Flip Its I stitched several years ago.
