This was a fun one to finish. No tweeding or beading, no backstitch, no French knots, no confetti, and only 17 colors to keep straight! I have no idea what the name of it is, I bought is as a kit from a magazine and the only identifying information was a kit number from a company out of Belgium named Verachtert. If only I could figure out how to take a picture without my shadow getting all over it. I guess I also need either a.) a better camera, or b.) a newer phone with a better camera as the color is off on everything I take a picture of. Those pinks are much more muted and and the Aida is one shade off of white..... Ah well, if these are my biggest problems I will count myself lucky.

Happy Stitching everyone!

oh that is awesome!! Too bad it isn't a regular kit or chart, I would love to stitch this--I think it is something my mom would love!! Great stitching!!

Hey! that's nice...very different!

That is really pretty!! Even with the colors not being correct. Might not be your phone or camera, but the lighting that is making the colors look different. My DH was an artist and when putting together a photo portfolio of his paintings he had to take the pictures outdoors in sunlight to get the colors right. It was amazing how different they looked when taken inside. Daylight lamps probably help some. But your piece is lovely and beautifully stitched. Hard to believe it is only 19 colors!

It's beautiful. Like Karen, I would love to stitch this one. So pretty and cheerful.

What a fabulous finish! It definitely looks like more than 17 colors.

Wow, this is really great, I love it. A bit unusual, and a great composition.

What a lovely riot of colour that is - it is truly amazing and what fun is must have been to stitch too.

I love the colours, design and perspective... Beautiful!

Oh that's lovely, the style is really so modern too. Something I could get into. Love doing florals lately.

Modern and jazzy. Really great. Doncha love it when you take a chance on something and it works so well?

What a gorgeous, colourful and unusual piece - thanks for sharing!

Love it.

Wow, just love it. So unique, great combination of colours. I've seen that name on kits but not seen on stitched before now.

I truly love this! It makes me think about where I could display it in my home. What a shame you can't identify the chart.

I love it The design is fresh and funky you've stitched it beautifully too
