First Finish for 2007


I meant to post this the other day but I kept getting distracted before I got around to it. My first finish of 2007 (should have been finished in 2006) and number six for the challenge. It is a free chart from Ink Circles adn stitched up wonderfully. The fabric is 32ct crystal Sterling from Picture this Plus and it is stitched in VC silks. Dragons blood for the main varigated knot and Diane’s Rouge for the darker shaded outline. Stitched over 1, completely forgot what I was doing when I chose 32ct fabric but it was a lot easier than I expected on the 32ct. The colours are a lot richer than they appear in this picture, hopefully if I take another picture once it is finished up into a bookmark the colours will show more accurately.

And one more thing I forgot to post. Here is my progress on lost from the Wed QS SAL. I got home late wed so didn’t have much time to stitch but I was determined to get a few stitches in. Silly me could’t find the page of the chart I had been working on though so I moved onto page two briefly. This coming week I am hoping to strt seeing the little dragon. ( I eventually found the page I was missing).

    Nice work on your Ink Circles piece and on your HAED. I need to do another QS, but I have so many other things going at the moment. Ugh.
