TOGETHER FOREVER
I thought I would share with you my largest project to date. This design is ‘The Wedding’ by Lavender & Lace and I started it in February 2020 when my daughter Charlotte and her fiancé Dave got engaged. It took me over 12 months to complete, just in time for their wedding in July 2021. I have enclosed a photo of us at the wedding when they were presented with the completed design.

Hannah F: What a beautiful photograph and a stunning piece of stitching, Helen, thank you for sharing it with us. The bride and groom look thrilled with their gift. You’ve done an amazing job of ‘The Wedding’ designed by Marilyn Leavitt-Imblum for Lavender & Lace. It’s a classic sampler that uses 38 thread colours, metallic thread, antique seed beads and stands at 301 by 228 – it really is an epic stitch, so very well done! If any of our other readers are interested, ‘The Wedding’ is available as a chart from Arts and Designs*.
