Slow Stitching - second little house
I have finished my second little house in my Slow Stitching project!! I used a fused panel of fabric for the base of the house because it allowed me to match the pattern and have a slimmer house. I added brown roof, a chimney, two windows and a double layered door. I like the fun look of this house. I stitched the chimney horizontally to give it more texture and interest. I did three rows of stitching around the edge of the roof. I used soft teal thread to make the three rows around the base of the house and I like the softness of the colours. I added two windows and stitched them in place using similar colours instead of contrasting which makes them really bright. I used two layers of fabric for the door - a brown in behind and a turquoise/peach pattern for the double door which echoes the house colours. I added to dark red stitches for the handles one for each door. Happy with this one! I will use try to change up a few things for the next house - roof line, windows and maybe a different front door placement. We shall see!!!!!!! Therese
