The richness of the colours in this design is matched by the skill of the stitcher. Just lovely.

Couldn't have said it any better!!!

Thank you for your kind comments. In fact, it is that case when the chart is well worth stitching.

Your needle must be white hot Lyudmila, those 2 posies of flowers are totally amazing and oh so gorgeous. I love the Poinsettia one especially. Beautifully stitched and the colours are fabulous.

They are beautiful the colours are gorgeous

Thank you for your kind support. It really is quite a piece of work. Not so much the seasons themselves as the background and the "frames" around each picture. When finished the bag will be equal A 4 paper sheet and will be 5 cm "thick"if this word means here what I am trying to tell.

[Garnet]

Oh, these are beautiful Lyudmila and as always so beautifully stitched. I can't wait to see what the finished bag looks like.

You always stitch such beautiful designs.

That is stunning Lyudmila,

The Sunflowers and Poppies are a lovely reminder of Summer, just as we are heading into Winter.

Gorgeous stitching, your stitches are so beautifully neat and even.

Well Done.

As you must have guessed, I am quiet because I am finishing the Spring for my GD's bag. But I cant decide on the background colour. Black would be ideal, I think. But when washed (and it will be washed a lot) a dozen times, black threads may look greyish. Correct?

So I am asking for your help and will be really grateful for any ideas.

[Squirrel]

That is a hard one to work out Lyudmila. Perhaps a soft blue to represent the sky or maybe a pale fawn to grey to represent the soil or a goldy brown for a table top. Even a pale soft green would work ok. Ifind blues and greens work pretty well with almost everything.


Sorry I can't be specific but there is such a variety of main colours it is hard to chose.. Good luck with it.

"Glorious" is the word that came into my head as soon as I saw your Summer, Lyudmila. It is also perfectly stitched as always.

Summer is so vibrant and colourful

Congratulations on a beautiful finish
