Stitch with Me #242 - In the Library

🧵 STITCH WITH ME | SPINNING YARNS DESIGNS Grab your needles, find a comfy spot, and let’s get some stitches in! Today, I am officially starting "In the Library" (cropped detail) by Auguste Toulmouche, charted by Fine Art Stitch! I am stitching this gorgeous, detailed fine art piece on 20-count Aida using rich Painting Fairy Floss. Grab your favorite current project, get cozy, and let's spend a relaxing afternoon stitching together! 📚🎨✨ 📍 PROJECT DETAILS • Design: In the Library (Detail) • Artist: Auguste Toulmouche • Charted by: Fine Art Stitch • Fabric & Floss: 20ct Aida / Painting Fairy Floss 🎨 ABOUT THE ARTIST Auguste Toulmouche (1829–1890) was a French painter best known for his luxurious, highly detailed genre scenes of fashionable Parisian women in elegant 19th-century interiors. His work captured rich fabrics, opulent home libraries, and intimate moments of daily life with remarkable realism and charm! ☕ COME HAVE A FIKA WITH ME I’d love for you to join me for a virtual Swedish Fika while I work. Grab your coffee or tea and let's relax together. What is Fika? In Swedish culture, Fika (pronounced fee-ka) is much more than just a coffee break. It is a cherished social institution—a dedicated moment in your day to slow down, enjoy a coffee or tea, share a small treat, and catch up with friends. It’s about making time for a pause in a busy world. 💖 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL I’ve set up a Ko-fi for those who would like to support the channel! I have officially started my dream project—the gorgeous Pride and Prejudice Mandala! My current goal is gathering the last few missing supplies and floss to keep this elegant masterpiece growing on the frame.
