Hollyhock House: Both vases and flowers stitched


I have finally stitched both sides of Hollyhock House and just in time too for my March assignment, which will be what I wanted to stitch all along, the bricks. We would think that I have been a bricklayer in a previous life for my wanting to do this part so badly (grinning).
.
I find myself with a big conflict this morning as I said that I would do the finishing of my little bargello pillow and I really want to do just that, but and a big but, at the same time I want to do some bricklaying so badly too. Life is just so hard, isn't it? Tough choices all the time :-(
.
Next post will tell you which one I have decided to work on first ..................

This is looking lovely, remember to not get your mortar too soft and keep a plumb line to keep your bricks straight
