Daphne is done and dusted! (Well, washed and ironed...)
I stitched this one as part of a holiday gift basket for a friend. It was my 2022 "travel project" -- worked mostly on flights, work trips, and our summer vacation. It's so hard to give it away! 💙 💚 💙
(It's also a cautionary tale. Notice how close that hem is to the design? I was distracted while doing the finishing work and accidentally cut one side of the fabric to 1 1/4" beyond the pattern instead of 1 3/4". As there was no putting that toothpaste back in the tube, I had to make it 1 1/4" the whole way around, which is not much to work with. Measure twice, cut once indeed!!)
I just love this design and your version is so well done! This is such a special gift, and I love the way you presented your work. Everything about it is lovely. The great thing about giving away your work is that you'll make your friend really, really happy AND you give yourself the chance to make another one for yourself!
