The stitching was wonderful to do until I got to the gear and then it got a bit tedious due to the confetti stitching. But I'm very pleased with the result and I think it's a solid start to this epic piece.
I'm also very happy to be on 28ct 1 over 1 instead of 25. While it is smaller and presents new challenges; at the same time I don't see any of the occasional spaces or fabric that peeked through on 25ct 1 over 1.
Here is the first page (because I stitch like I'm left handed) from the bottom left corner:
And a quick reminder of what she will hopefully look like eventually...
And so I will keep on going as obviously there is still a lot to do!!!
Happy stitching!
Congratulations on finishing your first page of Alice! Mind boggling....
ReplyDeleteThe first page looks great! I'm sure you'll get used to the confetti stitching in time.
ReplyDeleteCongrats :) I stitch my HEAD on Linda 27", I didn't like the effect on 25". On 28" I must say that I affraid - I haven't stitch anything on this yet and I didn't want to experiment with Spangler's HEAD. And still - "27" is so small that I really need good light and I can't be tired - I guess that's why I making it so slowly (and beacuse of 6 UFO and 3 WIPs :D ).

ReplyDeleteWow Mel that is a solid start! It looks fantastic. I tried one over one on 25 count and wasn't happy with it, perhaps I should try 28?
