January Stitchery and Fabrics

Our January project for Chookyblue's Stitch a Long was a gorgeous stitchery, a free pattern from Anni Downs. Thankyou Anni!
I love this kind of stitchery, and have made it into a hanging ornament ready for next Xmas.


And, here are the fabrics I have ready to begin "Natures Journey".... yes, I had fun shopping. I have gone with neutrals for the backgrounds, and will be adding some darker colours to it. The burgundy fabrics are some I had already, and I have spotted a beautiful darker country blue that I plan to use for the borders and bindings. The stitchery will be in the blue thread shown.
When I saw the pattern, these colours just came to mind, so we'll see how it all comes together. I'll be adding other fabrics as I go!
