Floral Cushions and Throws

In the last a few months, my husband and I had been looking for unexpensive floral cushions and throws. We found some in garage sales, and bought some from Superstore. However, I think I'll still be interested in stitching some by myself.
                                                             Good Luck with You!

Simple but elegant. It reminds me how my grandma's house was like. I can even smell her house. Oh, those memories in the smell. Who can tell?

Pink Rose. Good for simple color collection house.

Let me know if you like these kits.

Batik--- Cross stitch pattern collection

Batik is a cloth that traditionally uses a manual wax-resist dyeing technique(Definition from Wikipedia). These cross stitch patterns imitate batik and help to create a distinctive decoration style.
