WIP - The Enchanter, James Himsworth

Post by cinderella4282 »

After finishing the Fairy Idyll by Mirabilia, I decided to attempt cross stitching on black. A little rough sometimes, but it is shaping up nicely. Looking forward to having it done so it can hang in the living room!

Beautiful design and very stunning on black! I've only done small pieces on black and found it a bit tricky to see, even with a while cloth behind.

I have a book with some wizard designs, so you've reminded me to have a closer look!

Keep up the good work!

You ladies are a bad influence! :lol:

All the looking on this forum made me quite intrigued by the Heaven and Earth Designs. I went on and looked and fell in love and started one . . . Unfortunately this means that the wizard is going to have to remain unfinished for a little longer.

I will post my progress on the HAED when I have enough done to picture.
