Jane Austen Kit

Over the past few years I have had numerous requests for a certain blue & white design that I had stitched many moons ago and was avidly being pinned on Pinterest.  My students encouraged me to re-create it so I set about re-designing it and am delighted to announce that it is now available as a kit in the ETSY store.

I have named it Jane Austen as I love all her books and movies and wanted the design to pertain to that era and the lovely soft hues that were so prominent in their fashion and decor.  The design is a “Shades Of Whitework” project stitched in soft, smokey blues with touches of parchment, pale gold and white, on a premium linen fabric.   I have always loved blue and white and the shades were so pleasing to work with, I have promised myself to use them more often in the future.

Meantime, wherever you are in the world, remember “Embroidery forever, housework whenever!”  Keep smiling and happy stitching!  Trish
