Orchid by Lanarte

Lizzieh · Post by **Lizzieh** » Thu May 07, 2009 4:22 pm

Now I've finished the Phoenix Fairy I have pulled out the WIP I had going before I started it.

It is a beautiful Lanarte design of an Orchid. It is stitched on 30count linen which has been very slightly screen printed to give a very subtle cream background.

I have done about half of the first page with 3 more to go after.

Will post piccies when I have the camera back! It feels really weird stitching on this after doing a HAED on 18count!

I love Lanarte and Orchids so I just couldn't wait to see your photos and found the kit L01[f]34786_Lanarte_-_Orchid.htm]here. It's absolutely stunning

Very expensive though

Sorry the link won't work - I think it must be because there are [] in the web page name. I'll see if I can find another link.

Not heard of this designer before, so looked it up on the web. The designs are stunning. Look forward to seeing pictures soon.

Right, he is back now so here are the promised pictures.

This is what the finished design looks like.

And this is what I have done so far

This just seems so incredibly fast to do after the HAED.

I am going to rotate 3 days on this, 3 days on Castle in the Air and 3 days on cards for TOFs. I never thought I'd see the day of having more than one thing on the go
