Saltwater Scrapbook Part 1 | The Blue Flower
Designer's Note: This project is a collaboration between The Blue Flower and Lindy Stitches. The idea was inspired by folk art quilts. I love the way everyone creates their own "block" and they can be combined into a harmonious whole. There are 9 "block" designs in total - 4 in this chart and 5 in "Saltwater Scrapbook - Part 2" from Lindy Stitches. They are all the same size, and use the same threads. Stitchers can mix and match the blocks into ornaments, drums, little "quilts" - whatever takes their fancy. I had a wonderful time designing these blocks - particularly the girl and her dog leaping off the pier into the sea.
The models are stitched on 40 count "Silvermist" linen from Fabrics By Stephanie. The total stitch count is 123 wide x 123 high (which includes all four blocks - each block is 61 x 61). The models are stitched with a mix of DMC and overdyed cotton threads.
Thread list:
DMC - 520, 523, 779, 3064, 3770, 3821, 3861, 3865
Weeks - Sandcastle, Bright Leaf, Bark, Cadet, Twilight, Red Rocks

If your order contains any pre-order items, your order will be held until all items are ready to ship. Consider placing separate orders if you would like to receive your in-stock items sooner. Multiple orders will be shipped together whenever possible and any shipping overages will be refunded to you.
At this time, shipping is only available for US and Canada. I ship primarily via USPS from Northern California.
