Sunbathing in March

So, it's the 20th of March and š āļø.
I'm lucky enough to have a lovely sunny spot outside Gustaf's Studio and Gallery, so I'm making the most of it today. š
Did you know how amazing Victorian Cross-stitch is? Apart from being a beautiful rhythmic stitch to sew, it doesn't require a frame. Excellent, so I sew everywhere, in bed, on the train, standing beside the cooker and of course, outside.

Today, I've perched in the flower box, my tapestry and a mug of tea. A great way to spend the afternoon.
I'm stitching (still stitching!) The Mural Camel Tapestry Kit, part of the Traquair House Chapel Needlework Collection.
You can buy it using this link ā¬ļø

It's a beautiful design inspired by the late medieval wall murals within Traquair House.

The kit comes with everything you need to complete it. In a lush black bag, perfect for gifting.

I'm offering a free tutorial with every kit purchased. Please let me know if you want to come along!
Well, times getting on, sun bathing is over for today, roll on Summer āļø
