Copper Boom • Blackwork Cross Stitch Pattern • PDF Digital Download
A blackwork tribute to Friday night dinners and fast talking in New England. Featuring designs that would remind you of such things, like:
🍂 Dragonflies and Snow. A salute to women everywhere predicting the weather by scent and also running their own successful businesses.
🍂 Coffee, the primary fuel of quick-witted conversation (panel also features a bold reminder for us to not use our cellular devices)
🍂 A bookshelf of literary classics, an ornamental umbrella, and a poster that says 'my college of choice caused unspeakable tension in my family, but the campus is close to home so things worked out in the end' (disclaimer: poster actually shows the letter 'Y')
🍂 An autumnal scene of a small town gazebo and sign. The town is actually called 'Tsars Follow' but I messed up the stitching.
