Leland's Needlecase from A Stitcher's Journey
Leland's Needlecase is one of the charts available in A Stitcher's Journey by Blackbird Designs. A picture of the finished piece was posted in the Facebook group, Fans of Blackbird Designs with an alternate color scheme. I really like it so am posting it here so I can find it when I am ready to stitch it.
This one was stitched with the called for colors.
