Travelling Pattern - Tending The Blooms

Now I won the travelling pattern Tending The Blooms though I didn't realise I was signing up for it.

It arrived at a really bad time! A couple of days before we were doing our big moving day. So it took me a little while to start it though the first moment I could I found the threads and got going. Now I took one look at this pattern and said I love the design but don't like the dull colours. I have never been a real fan of the dulled colours though they look pretty I like bright colours. So I picked out some new colours.

Instead of dusty pink I picked out hot pink! and because mum said why do you always have to have purple when I was picking bright purple for the flowers I changed it to blue.

I had lots of fun with this pattern trying new stitches and making it look pretty.

and here is the finished product. Lovely and bright. I did it one strand over 2 like the pattern said though if I had thought beforehand I would have changed to 2 strands but I was too lazy as well. The only thing left to do for this pattern is find a charm for the bee. That may take a while but I'm not in a rush.

Now onto the exciting news, this wonderful pattern now has to travel onto someone else. Please post on here that you are interested in receiving the pattern and I will pick someone to receive it in a week. (maybe longer because everyone seems behind on blog reading at the moment.)

Enjoy :D
