Happy Dance - Blackwork Sunflower

Started: 8/1/2018
Finished: 8/6/2018

This is one of several flowers with a blackwork background that Amanda Gregory designed for the World of Cross Stitching #269.  It's stitched on white 14-count Aida with the called for threads.  It's mostly stitched according to the pattern, but there is at least one unintentional customization.

There are several more of these designs that I want to stitch and she just released six more into her Etsy shop that are already in my stash.  These will all be made into cards, probably for the St. Paul's Christmas Boutique in November if Janice decides to sell again this year.

It's a lovely combination of blackwork and cross stitch.
