Summer Sampler
Now it's summer time and I thought it would be nice to start a little summer stitching. I choose the Summer Sampler by Chessie&Me. It's a nice and funny stitching.

First I thought I have to order the threads, but when I looked through my stash I found some Old Willow Stitcher Threads which I really liked for this Summer House. My Summer Sampler now will look quite different, but I'm really pleased how it comes along. Here's my progress so far:
