Nora Corbett's Arezzo

Nora Corbett's Arezzo finally came today...all the way from Italy! I received it this morning and already had the fabric finished and the working copy photocopied by noon.

Arezzo 2014 by Nora Corbett

If you were wondering this chart was exclusively done for Casa Cenina as a freebie for their Festa del Ricamo which Nora was a guest at. Right now Casa Cenina is offering the chart for free but you have to buy the "kit" to get it at this time. In the near future just the chart should be available for the cost of postage. It is a limited time chart so I just HAD to have it, she is just so pretty. The pattern is a handwritten chart too, so it is kind of a doozy to look at, but I am sure after a few hours of stitching it should be fine!

Canada Day Weekend Freebies!

It has been a while since the last freebie cross stitch pattern, so here is the latest pattern for your weekend enjoyment. A pink stiletto shoe embroidered with gold flowers!

For some reason the quarter stitch symbols don't show up too well due to how I had to make this into a jpg so I could share, if you leave them off it won't make a huge difference to the design but if you zoom in well enough the symbols are a bit easier to see. To save the pattern click on the picture and right click and save.
On top of that, to celebrate Canada's birthday I am offering a 10% off coupon for my Etsy store until July 2nd when you use the coupon code CANADA2013 at check out!
