Cirque des Cercles finished Mar-11
This was my vacation project but I forgot my Q-Snaps so very little got done. Picked it up again tonight, here's how it looks so far!
I am using a 28ct white opalescent fabric, stitching 2 over 2, and using Caribbean Laney from Carrie's Creations.

Re: Cirque des Cercles
Interesting, I'd love to stitch on that fabric, and the colour mix is funny.

Re: Cirque des Cercles
It's lovely! I assume it's varigated thread? Do you have to be very careful to watch how the colours line up (they all seem to flow into one another beautifully!)

Re: Cirque des Cercles
my browser shows only a broken image link. i assume it is supposed to show your fabric choice.
i can't wait to see your progress. i would like to do all 3 cirque designs and the blackstone path one. sometimes i just sit and drool over her website...can't actually afford the time or money for one right now!
