Good morning, everyone! It's happy dance time ;) I can't dance to save my life. If there was a character that reminded me of my dancing, it would be Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. No rhythm whatsoever. LOL
I received the skein of thread I needed for my Potions design in the mail on Monday (no screaming from my side of the blogging world so you know the skein mostly matched the other skeins I had used previously) and was able to finish the last two rows last night.
And yes, I actually figured out the queen stitch, which now that I look at it, it reminds me of peppercorns or some other sort of dried spice. I really don't care for how it looks, but perhaps it looks better on non-linen fabrics and with more than one thread.
This design will go in my 'to frame' pile. I'm thinking maybe an ornate or old-fashion looking black frame since it is a Halloween design.
I have given up trying to get an accurate photograph of the linen color :)
Now on to stitching on CCN's London design!!!
Until next time ^___^
Woo hoo - all finished! It looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteThanks :) Overall it was a fun project despite that crazy queen stitch. And I loved working with the silk threads!!
DeleteHave a great weekend.
I agree- it looks fabulous! Nice finish.
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I hope you have a great weekend of crafting!!
DeleteRachel, that is lovely! Definitely black and ornate for the frame. And if you need a place to store it, send it to California. I'll keep it safe for you. LOL
ReplyDeleteLol I know you would! If I did send it to CA, it would definitely match your autumn finishes!
DeleteHave a great Friday and weekend :)
Beautiful finish, and plenty of time to find the perfect frame for it before Halloween.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! I'll have to see what Michael's and Hobby Lobby have and compare :)
DeleteWow, a fantastic finish!
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I'll have to take my friend Kristina with me to pick out a frame for it.
