Bakery (Needlepoint)


For my second needlepoint project I wanted to try some decorative stitches. I couldn't tell at this point whether artistic needlework or efficient, regimented stitchery was more my style. (I've since discovered that I'm more the regimented type, unless the content relates to a decorative texture better.)
This canvas came with a stitch guide, which I mostly followed. For what I've completed, the window is Continental, the gable trim is Cross Stitch, the white trim is Straight Gobelin, the gable is Brick and the roof is Milanese in ribbon.
