The recommended fabric is 36ct Wren by Picture This Plus. The recommended floss is Weeks Dye Works.

  • Aztec Red
  • Bee’s Knees
  • Caper
  • Cayenne
  • Cocoa
  • Dirt Road
  • Dolphin
  • Oscar (DMC 3011) I used DMC as Oscar was not available
  • Parchment

I chose to stitch the Berry Basket on 16ct Lambswool with the recommended colors. It was a quick stitch.

For the needleroll I chose 14ct Friendship Greene from Fabrics by Stephanie.

I doubt my finishing skills will be up to a drum or a needleroll so they just may be finished as small pillows.

November 2, 2021. Sweet Summer Comes Again by Blackbird Designs joins the others in the dough bowl. I used the red Rhubarb and Ginger BBD fabric for the back of both of these. And the ruched ribbon trim is a dark olive color.
