Rowyn from Stitching under the Southern Cross Blog here recently shared one of her Shepherd's Bush Charts ( along with the left over thread) and I was the lucky one to be selected in the draw.It arrive late last week and I must admit other things were put aside so I could stitch it straight away, I really enjoyed stitching this little design and would now like to offer the chart to another embroiderer.
For my piece I stitch on 35 count Lambswool permin , not the 32 as suggested and kept a note of how much thread I used of each colour. The threads were silk and the number given apply to
Kreinik Soie D'alger there is not enough of all colours to stitch another one however I have checked the colours against my DMC chart and made a list so if anyone else would like this chart I am happy to pass it on. Please leave a comment and in a weeks time on February 6th I will do a draw and pass the chart on to another embroiderer,
I plan to make this into a Needle book and havin looking at some of my Shepherd's Bush designs for small motif to finish it.
Simple threrads which to the work belong

Shepherd's Bush always has the sweetest designs that are fun to stitch. What a nice idea to stitch and pass along. Looking forward to your finished needlebook. Thanks for a fun passalong.
Oh how fun. I would love to stitch it and then pass it on. But I don't have a blog. So I thought if my name is pulled, then you draw a 2nd name. That person I would pass it on to after me:)
