Part 6 already! and your stitched pieces are looking so good. I am really pleased so do keep them coming in for us all to see.
I have just added another Willow pattern design to my website shop, based on my fusion of decorative blackwork and cross stitches. The first, LJT177 Willow pattern picture, is the companion and I think they will work really well together and both are ideal as cushions or framed pictures.
My Winter / Spring sampler is really starting to take shape, and thanks so much for all of your pictures you have been sending in. If you are not already part of this lovely group, then please ask to join us: Lesley Teare Cross Stitch designs | Facebook

I hope you have a good stitching week and keep safe,
