Stitcherhood of the Traveling Pattern

While this is technically not a WIP, I did sign up for this Stitch Along in 2018 and could not resist a start when it arrived in my mailbox!

There had been 3 stitchers before me, their challenges and joys of stitching this project outlined in letters that accompanied the pattern. I added my own along with this conversion and sent the packet along to the next stitcher.

While I cannot tell you the fabric count or color (as I was determined to use only materials from my stash) I have included my conversion above which took 12 days to stitch. I found the actual colors to be quite different than the cover photo and wanted to include my favorite variegated silks for flags into the design.

 

I adored the idea of being part of a bigger stitching circle and as the pattern weaves it's way throughout the country I thank the original owner who thought to share this out of print gem!
