Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Thank you for your kind comments on my Enchantress. This afternoon I sneaked out into my conservatory and completed the cross stitching on my Geisha:



The temperature started dropping so I didn't get time to do the backstitching. Hopefully I will do that tomorrow

Jo

She looks so elegant! Looking forward to her backstitched finish.

Both designs are lovely and your stitching is perfect.

Carole

Doesn't she look very elegant. Well Done.

The backstitching is done:



And the two of them together:



I also have a single rather large Lilly flower which looks to be in a similar style done by the same company around the time these were available so might do it to make a group of three cross stitches.... I have to decide before I order the frames

I have started another fun piece for the conservatory

Jo

Beautiful!

Elegant. Delicate. Perfect.

Carole

They are both so lovely.

Lovely. Perhaps frame all three as a triptych?

Thank you for your kind words. I have just dug out the Lilly kit:



The frame work behind flowers reminds me of the background behind the first Geisha. It is not a very big piece and is on 16 count rather than the 14 of the two Geishas

Jo

It would complement them beautifully, on whatever count!

Lovely. If you stitched it on 14ct, would it be the same size as the geishas?

The two geishas really complement each other.

I think the Lily will look fantastic along side, whatever count you decide,

I agree. The geishas are gorgeous, so delicate. And the lily will be equally gorgeous.

Totally agree

Carole

Well done on the finish of 2 beautiful Ladies. They look so well togther.
A good start on the Lily one - looking forward to the updates.

Thank you

I felt the need of something comforting so in my conservatory its Bath time:



I need to do a bit more on my Enchantress It is difficult to concentrate with all that is going on in the world

Jo

A very good start to a lovely design.

I spy with my little eye…

Thank you

Post Img seems to be down this morning so I am having to host my progress picture on my model engine forum and link to here to show you where I am on my Enchantress:



Hopefully I will get her finished for the beginning of spring
