I just wanted ot post pictures of my current project. This is rose of sharon by mirabilia. I started it about 2 months ago when I finished venetian elegance.
Again I'm stitching it over 1 on 32 count (yay no beads on this one!)
I started with the overhead part becuase if i did her first- id never do the background. Next ill move on to the bottom of the skirt. I'll probably have to put her away shortly as I have a huge project coming up that will take a few months of my time.
Wow what a great start, and I love the fabric colour. It compliments the design quite nicely. As well as a to you for doing one over one. It looks so tiny and i can only be brave enough to do 2 over 2 on evenweave. But that's too bulky so I always stick to 18 count Aida.
Great stitching. I think this is one of Corbett's better designs. Your over-one treatment is really going to add impact. Bigger isn't always better.....
I love your 'over-one' projects, so exquisite. This is a beautiful design - I have it in my stash, you've reminded me it's on my to-do-one-day list - I shall enjoy watching her grow.
Are we allowed a sneaky peak of your upcoming major project, or is that under wraps until this one is finished?
