Girl with pigeon by Luca S UPDATE : 01/08/20

Post by poppy »

I am alternating two projects : the full coverage William Morris design and this one. They are very different.
This one is stitched on white Aida 16 Count, 2 over 1 with Anchor threads.
So far, it is a very enjoyable stitch. I do find gridding so helpful.
I hope you like it too. :)

What a delightful design! And it's nice to have two completely different things on the go.
