Degas - Dancer

Post by Nono »

Hello !

I am Nora from Hunagry and this is my first post.
I am stitching Degas - Dancer from Mystic Stitch.

Image

The fabric is 16 ct white Aida. I stitch it with two strands of floss, 90 colours.

I have 16 pages and I am stitching the 5th in this photo from 11th Jan:

That's lovely. I love the charcoal drawing effect it has. I really like how the background is blending together too.

That's a beautiful design! I like paintings with a "sketchy" feel. Great start and such neat stitching! :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Welcome to the forum

That is a beautiful piece. The blending in the background is amazing and I love the "sketchy" feel it has. Great stitching.
