What a great project ... and the heart fabric is

Sure I've seen him before, was he in CS recently?

Love the Ink Circles design! And the bookmarks are great, especially that bibliophile one. I have my eye on that one myself

I've started on a new project--a wedding sampler for my brother's upcoming wedding--I fell in love with this when I first spotted it and thought it would make a nice gift. I'm working it up on 14 count aida in a natural color. Here is what it will look like when it's finished

and here is how much I've done since Friday

I'm making a few subtle changes--I'm using two shades of green in the leaves that are nearer in color to each other, using 1/4 stitches on many spots to avoid stitches being outside of the backstitching, and a couple of other small changes will be made as I continue

beautiful gift, great progress so far

LadyS · Post by **LadyS** » Sun Jun 26, 2011 7:24 pm

I just have to say, your backstitching work is stunning! I can never make mine neat like that!

Beautiful!
