HAED~ Libra update 5/14 pg 4

Post by JazzeyBear »

I started this one about a week ago, worked on it a few days. Its stitched on 25 ct Lugana, one over one. It's a Josephine Wall design.

So far I haven't had any problems with the confetti but I know it's just a matter of time. I've finished the first column on the first page.

Yes I can see there must be a lot of confetti in that design but just think how good it will look in the end. It will be well worth the effort! You are doing well already :applesauce: :applesauce:

So 3,920 stitches later I've completed the second column on the first page and you can see some little stars! Going to keep working on it and finish the page before I go to a smaller count fabric.

:applesauce: Great update. Yes, you can see stars appearing and a lot of different blues also. I love her designs and I think all the confetti is what makes them so amazing. It will be worth it. I can understand wanting to rotate after finishing the column, but hope you will get back to it soon as I know I will enjoy watching this one develop.

Thanks everyone! I have two columns left before I finish the first page, and working on the 25 ct keeps my mind focused on make the little tent tiny X's. There are two main blues right now, and many shades of blue, a few stitches of purple, a few stitches of grey. My favorite stitch so far has to be the one lonely stitch of dmc 3746. It's such a pretty color and I'm hoping I'll have more stitches of it together and not just one stitch surrounded by blue.

Thanks everyone! I'm not happy with how much show through there is right now, but since it's just the sky I'm working on it looks like stars. I don't want to restart, and working with 2 over 1 is a pain.
