Plus I'm doing this one as a very informal SAL with Mel of Epic Stitching! Basically, we just post whenever we have progress to share, and encourage each other to keep going. :)
Here's where I am after two days of stitching!
Not bad, huh? She's hard to put down. :)
I'm stitching on Sunset Garden Cashel from Crafty Kitten. I love this color and I actually have two more pieces in Belfast... bought one and accidentally ordered another because I liked it so much and forgot I already had it. Whoops!
I normally stitch on Belfast, but the beading on this project is so dense that beading it as charted would be near impossible. I'm a bit worried about the look of my stitches on this looser fabric, and I'm trying to be very careful about keeping my tension light so I don't end up with the dreaded big holes look. So far, so good, I think. :)
I can't wait to work on her more tomorrow...
Beautiful stitching x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! That fabric is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteGreat start and lovely fabric too :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I am looking forward to seeing the entire design on that fabric.
ReplyDeleteThat's great progress for two days, and the fabric looks great!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress it looks beautiful! Cashel is my favorite to work on
ReplyDeleteWonderful new start! Nora's designs are SO addictive once you start. She is the one person I have never had a UFO for LOL.
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric too, it seems quite like the one I used for my Letter Fairies, only without the green touches.
