Re: Zucca
Fun-tastic! I love Alessandra Adelaide and I've put this in my to-do list for next autumn (I always follow the season's dominant colors to get inspired and the colors in this chart definitely scream "Autumn!"). I'll follow this WIP with interest.
I never thought about needles's treatment while on aeroplane, happy to know that they can enter free (not that I travel much, but this could be useful someday!)
Happy stitching

Re: Zucca
Thank you all for such kind thoughts. It has helped me get through a great big oops. So much for flying through this pattern. The last 2 nights I have spent
the same leaf. Somehow I am 3 stitches too high and 2 to the left. Way off.
So, I unpicked the leaf and the swirls last night and washed the area as best I can.. using overdyed threads I tried to be as careful as I could so the color wouldn't bleed. You can still see a little orange shadow from where I sitched, but I am hoping it will disappear when I restitch correctly, or perhaps just look like a shadow from the threads. Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.

I should have thought better about how I would stitch this pattern. Its a mirror image so I should have worked the center panel and out from there, not page by page as I had. As I do plan on stitching this pattern again to keep myself.. I will know better next time. Grrr.. Froggy Froggy go away and don't come back another day!

Re: Zucca update June 1
This is what I have acomplished over the weekend. I spent much of Monday stitching away. I hope to be done with this in the next couple of weeks. Then I can start on my other AAN design.

And here is a closeup of my somewhat fixed error. Photo didn't turn out that well but I can still see some orange from where I had stitched and the holes are a bit pulled. I'll see what I can do once its all stitched up.

Lovely design and I can see how it would be easy to make an error. Great work!

Re: Zucca update June 1
It's looking lovely! I'm sure the area will look better after it's been washed and pressed.

Re: Zucca update June 1
It looks great so far
I agree with Faith it will probably work itself out when it's been washed & pressed
good luck xx
