Maynia Stars

I have wanted to start Cinnamon Stars by Plum Street Samplers for well over a year now and Maynia has given me the perfect opportunity!
 
 
This star was created using The Gentle Arts Dark Chocolate and Silk' N Colors Cinnamon Stick, 2 of my new favorites! They are so vibrant in person, the stitches seeming to float above the fabric as they subtly change in hue.

 
There is no method to my madness, no plan meticulously outlined for this month. Thus far I have managed to find new projects and old to entertain my nights, and all comprised of materials in my very own home. The Maiden.

Maynia Moon

Having embraced a more Vintage vibe as of late the moment I saw Moonlight Haunting from Blackberry Lane I knew I had to have it!
 
 
Stitched on 28ct Thunder Storm OD Linen using The Gentle Art's Gold leaf. There is a 3D quality to the threads on this fabric, similar to the effect that Night Creatures has. I now know it is due to this fabric!
 
 
I love how many new designers Maynia has exposed me to and this, like all my other starts, was kitted using only fabrics and threads from my stash. The Maiden.
