Re: White wreath
White on white is much more impressive than I thought it might be. It really looks very nice. The chart is detailed, and you're doing a good job with it. I like it. But the more important thing is that you do.
Glad your eye is recovering.
Regards,
Richard.

Re: White wreath
So very close, but my hands gave out. Did 9 needles tonight. More than I have done during this whole project.

Re: White wreath
How tantalising, and sooooo tempting to go on and do just-that-one-needle-more..... but be sensible with your hands please, the wreath will still be there tomorrow - and it will look gorgeous when you finish it in its own good time

Re: White wreath
I clicked the picture and saw your wreath in all its glory. It is so beautifully stitched and gorgeous, Linda! I can understand why you want to carry on and on stitching. Your hands need a rest. Finishing is something to look forward to

Re: White wreath
Oh it is so so beautiful and oh so close to a finish, can understand wanting to finish it, but please doo look after your hands, your lovely stitching will still be there when your hands feel better.
I hope the humidity has died down now too, I wonder if humidity effects your hands like it does my arthritis?

Re: White wreath
Yes, the humidity does affect my arthritis too. And we are getting another bout of humidity. The hurricane is pushing all that hot humid air up north. Another 4 or5 days for us.Garnet wrote:Oh it is so so beautiful and oh so close to a finish, can understand wanting to finish it, but please doo look after your hands, your lovely stitching will still be there when your hands feel better.

Re: White wreath Finished
What do you intend to do with it? My inclination would be to leave it blank -- it is a wreath, after all -- but much depends on its final destination.
Anyway, it's beautiful!

What Serinde said 
It's gorgeous as it is, but if it is for a special person/occasion then the initial might just add that certain je ne sais quoi!

Re: White wreath Finished
I would leave the centre black on this Beautifully stitched wreath!
If you want to put an initial, how about a small one just underneath the 'bow' between the 'ribbon' ends right at the top?

Re: White wreath Finished
Thats lovely. I think an initial would work very well, but it would probably need to be quite ornate.

Re: White wreath Finished
I'd be tempted not to unless the font used for the initial is really attractive. It looks splendid as it is.

Re: White wreath Finished
I agree completely. Beautiful!!! Also about the initial if you want to make it a little more personal, but it truly doesn't need one.wendywombat wrote:I would leave the centre black on this Beautifully stitched wreath!![]()
