(Edited to add: This is my May Small for Heather’s Stitching Lotus Smalls SAL)
You know I finished this Beyond Cross Stitch Learning Collection piece from Victoria Sampler back in April and planned to make it into a box topper for a present for my daughter’s First Communion. Here it is!
I found a little square box and had the hardest time deciding on a color to complement the stitching. I settled on blue as it is her favorite color. I used a kind of stain with wax over it. It was not too hard.
Here is the inside with a little cushion I made for the bottom.
This turned out to be a very nice project! I’m quite happy with it.
Lovely finish, Mary!
This is so beautiful Mary. A real keepsake.
It looks fantastic as the top for that box – beautifully finished!
You should be happy with it! You did a great job! What a wonderful keepsake for a special memory!
This is absolutely lovely.
