Babies Don't Keep


An Etsy customer asked me to design a pattern for this poem, and I offered it to the general public after I completed hers - selling it two more times in quick succession!  I also discovered with this project that the 32 count linen I buy isn't exact in it's thread count - making the finished project have different dimensions depending on what direction I use the fabric.

I also completed one on 28 count evenweave cotton fabric - it was nice seeing how the design looked when the count was the same size in both directions.

I now offer the pattern in my shop.

Stitched: 2 strands over 2 threads on 32 count oyster linen
Completed: November 2011; January 2012; February 2012; August 2012
