Preparing for Field Notes #roxysjournalofstitchery Vol 6 | Edith Holden cross stitch | Hey Seaville
I'm so excited to for the next installment of #roxysjournalofstitchery Volume 6 - Field Notes. It sounds like the perfect blend of stitching and journaling. Over the weekend I pulled out some things from my stash that I'll use as inspiration, including the following books:
- Wild Flowers Of Australia by Thistle Y. Harris
- Collecting Ladies: Ferdinand von Mueller and Women Botanical Artists by Penny Olsen
- The Country Diary Collection Book 19 Country Cross Stitch
Will you be joining in this volume?

After looking through the box, I've been inspired to use the contents for a no sew journal. A place to keep all the precious pieces that will hopefully see the light of day. Hope you enjoy watching my process as I pull this journal together. Thanks for wa...
