This project was started February 2011 by our 3 quilting friends, me, Annelie and Natasha after we completed the Beginners Quilting course under Hettie Pringle's (from
Stitchingmatters) leadership.
I decided to embroider my pictures using these beautiful cross stitch designs by
Ellen Maurer Stroh. I could not believe my luck when I stumbled on her website a few years ago and the fact that it was available for free! With huge copyright infringements, it is however not free anymore.
It took about 3 hours each to embroider with an average of 30 thread changes each. It was however worthwhile. Below are photos of 6 of the 12 Baby Animals I embroidered for the quilt.
