And fortunately, it has arrived on her Birthday!!
Happy Birthday dear Nancy!
This is what I made for her Birthday, when I saw this design, Nancy's face came into my mind, and so I decided to stitch this for her Birthday!I stitched this and made it into a basket lid.
I had a nice white painted basket in my stash, so I checked stitch count, it was perfect, so I added stitched piece to this basket!And added organza lace around the edge, it's quite neat and clean, isn't it?
Here is back of the lid and inside.When I think about Nancy, always dark red comes into my mind, and so this was stitched red and white, so I used this dark red rosy fabric for the back of lid.
And I added my favourite SAKURANBO (cherry) tea from Lupicia in it!
I also added beads on the stitched piece, but I was hurry to send it out, so forgot to take close up photos...
I'm so happy that Nancy told me that she loves this and another goodies that I added, too.
I hope you had a wonderful dinner with your family, Nancy!
Take care and thanks for your visit!
Happy Stitching!

You choose such a perfect design and colour for Nancy, I know how she loves reddy colours. It is a lovely idea and so well stitched and made.
Good wishes,

Lucky Nancy!!! The basket is adorable with the pretty lacing and the very pretty design. Love your choice of colours.

Very sweet.
You do such beautiful work and your finishing is wonderful!
ゆうちゃん!!!
また英語の中に堂々と日本語でやってきました:-)
まずは素敵なポストカード、本当にありがとう♪
素敵すぎるので使わずに保存版にお蔵入りです!!
キルトにしてもステッチにしても作るものを見ると、
「あっ日本の方」「これはUSAこちらはフランスかな…」などど
なんとなく分かるのですが、今となってみると
ゆうちゃんの作るものだけを見て、日本の方だなっとは思えません!!
やっぱり海外の方との交感会などを多くこなしているからなのか
素敵な風が感じられるよ♪
息子くんの成長ぶりを見ながら、もう何年か後は
Rinくんもこうなってるなぁ…と、微笑ましく見ています～☆
ところで、ちょっとエンジンをかけられなかったカルトナージュに少しずつ着手しました。
仕上がりには自信がないけどゆうちゃんには愛情重視です(笑)
夏休みに入ってしまったのでまだ少し時間がかかりますが
お誕生日までには…と思っています。
えっ?待ちきれない?? もうちょっとがんばってみます(笑)
とりあえず素敵なゆうちゃんの気持ちを頂いたお礼まで～
Hi Yuko! I feel so special to have received this gift from you. I love it! Your work is even more beautiful in person, and you take so much care with everything you do. Thank you so much for thinking of me on my birthday. Hugs to you!
So pretty, Yuko! You always make such wonderful things. I tried to comment on your last post but for some reason couldn't get through. I love reading your blog!
I saw this on Nancy's blog - it's stunning!

Such a beautiful gift Yuko!!
So very beautiful! :) I love the lace!
Hi Yuko,
What a beautiful gift for Nancy. I bet she was so pleased to receive such a special gift from you.
Sorry I haven't been by lately but I have been so busy with this project that I am doing at the moment. Thank goodness the end is in sight.
Hope you are going ok. Sweetie is growing into such a lovely little boy. - Take care - Sandra.
Yuko, that is a beautiful gift! I loved how you finished the stitched piece! I'm sure Nancy is loving that basket.
Cheers!
Whats a beautiful basket

Yuko,
You could not have made a more perfect gift for Nancy. It's really beautifully made and finished. Baskets are always a real treat especially ones that have embroidered lids. I love my little round pink one :>)
Warm hugs Angela
Beautiful and exquisite as always Yuko...you make the most delicious things.
I am glad also to be able to read your blog again some nasty gremlin has stopped me reading your news for a long while...

You did a beautiful job stitching and finishing this basket.
It was the perfect choice for Nancy.
