This chart was designed by my buddy, Paula. She made 50 of these for the Queen City Sampler Guild's Christmas party before I became a member. Can you believe that?! Yep, she's awesome. Seriously!
I've wanted one ever since I saw my friend Janis'. A couple folks had theirs with them at the Tiara retreat. So I asked around at the retreat to find out who might have the pattern. Turns out it was my buddy Paula! She was nice enough to share it with me so I could make one of my own.
I think this one turned out pretty good since this was my first attempt at this kind of finish. The acorn tin topper I shared on Monday was actually the second one I've ever finished. If you want to give it a try yourself, here's a good tutorial by the Twisted Stitcher.
Thank you, Paula for sharing the pattern. I can't wait to show you in person tonight at the stitch-in! Also, thank you to all who've left me comments lately. You really do know how to make a person's day!
