finished cross stitch kit No.1

habbyworld · Post by **habbyworld** » Thu Jun 12, 2008 5:11 pm

The 3rd cross stitch i am doing is serioulsy difficult. On a 26ct black evenweave fabric and the stitches are all over the place. Sometimes i am doing 1 cross here and 1 there and that can be about 20 or 30 on 1 colour so i am forever starting and finishing 1 cross at a time. I think this one is going to take a good year or more.

It looks very nice, but I too don't know what it is.

Well i`m not saying what it is yet. I will say that this is only 1/4th of the size it is going to be when it`s finished.

This one has 79 different colours

I think that it looks like a face....but the person is looking away from the stitcher.

Wow 79 colors that is quite an undertaking.

Considering i`m a bloke. And alot of people think cross stitch is more a girly thing to do and a few people say doing it on black fabric and how small the stitch are and that some people wouldn`t even attenpt to do what i am doing. I am quite chuffed having 2 finished already and doing such a complicated 3rd already.

It's got me wondering ...I'm pretty much clueless though at the moment.

and then

some more. Nope, I have no idea. Congrats, you've stumped the panel.

So, now are you going to tell us what it is? Please?

Have we seen your previous 2 projects? You won't keep us waiting too long will you?

Well if you start at the beginning of this thread and follow it through, you can see the first 2 that i have done.

As for the one i am doing now, it will probably take a year or more, there is alot to do, and no i`m not telling what it is yet, you will just have to keep guessing as i do it and show progress photos on here.

Your 2nd project is stunning! (sorry, a bit late ...i sort of missed this thread)...and for the 3rd one...I can't exactly guess...but I'm sure it's an animal, too! ( a tiger...perhaps?...

Duh

Sorry, I saw (and commented) on the first two projects. It's just that as I get older (and older), my memory fades now and then. Besides the first two were two whole pages ago. I can't remember that far back

. Sorry. Your work is very good. As for the third, I still haven't a clue.
