Jocellogirl's Herbularius. Part 4 finished 9th March

Post by jocellogirl »

I thought I'd start a new thread for this one, as it's going to take a while!!
This is my first big Chatelaine, Herbularius, part one of a four part set. Here's what the design will look like once finished

Here's the sparkly stash

and here's where I've got to so far

I actually started a couple of weeks ago and did the innermost green stitches. I picked it up again last night and did the blues.
Just so you get an idea of how enormous it's going to be, here's the whole of the scroll frame
Image.
Like I said, it's going to take a while!!
Thanks for looking :wub:
