First up is The Thankful Owls by Bent Creek. I fell in love with the owls on this one! And, they are tiny enough to fit on a fork! I had to stitch it :)
I used the called for floss and stitiched it up on a 32 count linen. I can't recall the name of the color but if I remember, I'll edit this post to add it in.
I finished this one in this cute frame by Jillibean Soup. I found it at my local Joann store. I added a bit of brown floral fabric I had in my stash from when Stampin' Up! made fabric (remember that?). I wrapped my cross stitch around a piece of sticky board and then matted it inside the frame. Simple but cute! I ended up displaying it in a tobacco basket I picked up at Target. I add seasonal pieces here throughout the year- it makes a cute background for stitched pieces!
My second piece features A Little Thankful by Lizzie Kate. I purchased this as a kit and it included a cute tiny charm and beads.
This one is also finished on a frame by Jillibean Soup that I found at Joann. I matted this with a ruffle of torn fabric I made using another brown fabric from my stash. This one is also from the Stampin' Up fabric line from long ago...
I love how easy it was to create these pieces using the frames from Jillibean Soup! I will be getting some more of these for sure! I may need to update my fabric stash though, lol! Most of my fabric is nearly vintage!
