Scarlet Quince - Medea *Updated 11/10/09*

Post by Billly'sGirl »

So I thought I'd add a picture of my other project. It's a design of the painting "Medea" by . I started it about 2 months ago and I have complete approximately 3.75 pages. I'm doing it on 18-count aida 2-over-1, all blended threads!
Remember that my camera sucks, and it looks a lot better in person!

And here is a link to what it will look like when completed:

Goodness. What patience you have with having to blend all the threads. Fabulous start though on a really stunning design. :applesauce:

That looks fantastic! I have an SQ waiting to be started and am a bit in awe of the blending required, but this is real impetus to get onto it :D

Thanks for all the positive replys!!!

It is hard to keep at this one, but I promised my OH that I would finish it. I should have the fourth page finished this weekend and then I'll post another picture. There should be a part of a face by then :D !!!

I finished the fourth page on Sunday, so I thought I'd add another picture. I finally have part of the face :D !!! It looks like the next page doesn't have as much confetti so hopefully it goes faster!!!

All I am getting is a message that the picture was moved or deleted from photobucket. :thinks: :(
