Summer Stamp Sampler Reveal

WHOOP! WHOOP ! WHOOP! and a big ole' YEEHAW! 

The Summer Stamp SAL has come to an end. 

All of the stamps are stitched, and the big sampler is in its frame.

 Goodness, I have  had a great time these last few weeks sharing the summer stamps.

 I want to thank everyone who dropped in for the sweet visits and for cheering me on. I also want to thank those who have stitched along with me. I hope  these little stamps brought a bit of joy to your day. 

I stitched the Summer Stamps twice . The large sampler was stitched on 14 count Rit yellow dyed Aida. 

If you are interested in how I dyed my 14 count Aida, I shared the process in a previous post entitled Let's Dye Some Fabric.

I framed the sampler in a thrifted frame temporarily until I find a frame that I really like. 

I then stitched the Summer Stamps into little pin pillows on 14 count coffee/ tea dyed Aida.

🌞Time to Dye-  2024 post on how I tea/ Coffee Dye my fabric. 

The trim around each pillow is two strands of chenille yarn that is twisted and tacked to the seams of the pillow.
