Hi y'all,
Hope you have had a really fabulous January. Personally, it has been the pits, to put it mildly. However, stitching wise, it has been amazing. I have a few smalls to show you next week, but I wanted to show you my big finish today.
It is called Swans and Shears Mystery SAL by Tempting Tangles Designs. She is one of my favorite designers. I changed the colors and used silk threads from Carrie's Creations Thread. I sure do miss Carrie (she is no longer in business) but understand that things change.
I stitched it on 32ct off white Belfast that I coffee/tea dyed. I had to wash it and unfortunately the colors bled. Luckily, everyone said it just looks like it was dyed that way. I know eventually I will get over it, just not yet. I worked on this on and off for at least a year so I am not getting rid of it.
Thanks for letting me share my pride and joy with you.
Until Friday, Happy Stitching
Mary
It's stunning Mary, the colours look great and any runs look as if they should be there. It's a great project to have accomplished
