Pouring one out for the Testers

Pouring one out for the Testers

Seeing all of these watering cans come together was such a highlight. Testers always find little ways to make a pattern their own, and this group really ran with it. Some added flowers inside the can, some embroidered details on the outside, and one even added water pouring from the spout. It’s always fun to see the same pattern interpreted so many different ways.

Thank you to everyone who spent time stitching, giving feedback, and helping make sure the pattern is clear and enjoyable to follow. I truly couldn’t do this without you.
