It's nice to see these done both ways. The bottom one would be nice for absorbing any water, and the top would be nice for a flower vase where you wouldn't worry about getting the furniture wet. I'm too chicken to try cutwork.
Its worth experimenting and fun too. Hope to see your cutwork here soon. This was my first try too and I enjoyed stitching this. Good luck. Thanks. Hugs...Shyam.
Fabulous job, I also prefer the second one. Well done, love Chris
Beautiful. I had done something similar with a FSL design coaster from ATW. Isn't it fun to experiment!
They both are lovely, my favourite is the second one.
Hugs, Lidia
Well done....both versions look good :)
I too had tried this same design on white cotton!
