Rachel's HAED project: Ravene *update 10th Dec 10*

Post by amaelamin »

Hi everyone. I'm currently stitching a HAED design that was released really recently, and when I saw the chart I knew I had to stitch her, I#ve loved the artwork for ages, and it will be fantastic to see it emerge

Her name is Ravene (artwork by Marta Dahlig)

Image

I'm stitching her on 25 count lugana, and i've started with her face which is nearly complete, and will share progress very soon.

Thanks for looking :)

Hi everyone! So nice to hear from you all :)

And thanks for the great comments, I think I will need encouragement to progress through this huge design ;)

Hehehe I will probably be totally blued out when finished, but the colours are gorgeous and a lovely selection of all different shades.

Yep, its the same designer as the seven deadly sins series, i was considering stitching a sin, but this one totally stood out, I love the dress.

Anyway, will be uploading a pic very soon, i'm very excited about sharing my progress :)

So, here she is...

Image
I wanted to get all the block done before I shared, but I was so eager to upload a pic...I'm currently stitching a vivid streak of blue in her hair which will look fab.

I couldnt believe how much detail there was in the face, this is the best charting I've seen, it looks totally like the art.

Looking forward to sharing many more pics with you all :)
