Easter Treasure Blog Hop

 Honestly, I can hardly believe it's a year since the last Easter Blog Hop, but here goes. Jo at Serendipitous Stitching  hosts the Easter Blog Hop, and has done so for quite a few years.  Pop over to her blog and go hunting for letters.

My letter is 

Just in case it's not obvious - the letter is E


Jo asked us to post a picture of an Easter or Spring project.  I chose this Australian wildflower sampler I stitched way back in 2004.  I combined two charts from the book Australian Cross Stitch by Vivienne Chinnery, and added the names of the flowers.  I stitched it on 18 count rustico Aida over 2, so it is quite large. It is one of my (many) favourites, and hangs in my dining room, except during the Christmas season when it moves up to a bedroom to make room for a framed Christmas cross stitched piece.



I hope you enjoy the Easter blog hop. I know from past experience that I will.

Happy Easter!
