SK Storykeeper FINISHED 03/23/2012

Here is my start on Selina Fenech's Storykeeper ( Storykeep-version )

I'm stitching on 25ct white lugana, 2 over 1 tent stitch. It's 50 colors, the usual dmc.
51x258 stitches makes 4 pages in the large chartpack, well 3 1/3...

It's my first try with tent and I guess it's my last. I just don't like it. But I'm going to finish this design in tent, not much to do.
And Kreinik... I don't like it either... Looks very pretty, but for my taste it's to thick. I heard that it's very thick, but being me I had to find out for myself how uncomfortable it is... ;-)

Anyway, started on 16th September, I finished th first page today. I think the worst confetti is over. Backside is a mess. But I'm going to sew some nice fabric to the back... (so no one will see my sins...)

I'm stitching this for a dear friend who love to read and to write fantastic stories on her own. So this is just made for her =)

Here's a page...

:applesauce: on your progress. It is very pretty. Is it the coverage that you don't like? From the photo it looks lovely. The design is so perfect for a reader/writer. She is going to be so thrilled with it, I am sure. Looking forward to your next update.

Great stitching Juel!!! I'm doing an SK on 28ct in tent stitch and I keep going backwards and forwards on whether I like it or not!!! I think we are our own worse critics at times - yours is looking beautiful and I'm sure your friend will adore it.
