A feeling of "Serenity"



This is a project called "Serenity" that was from our shop.  This pretty hand painted design is 8"x 8" on a 13 mesh mono canvas.  I would like to share this fun and easy to do project with our readers.  It could be ordered from our shop.  The colors come in the shades of the rainbow and could be custom painted to your wishes.

Here is "Serenity" that was hand stitched by a customer using Cityneedlework Silk #104 Yellow and #314 Blue.
The stitches used were a Diagonal Mosaic and Basketweave.

This will be finished into a Round Box with a Gather Gusset.  Once this project is finished I will post up the pictures.
