In my part of the world we say you are a fool if your passion for a pursuit overcomes all practical sense. I am a stitching fool, and I stitch foolishness.

itsy bitsy teeny weeny
All I can say about the results of tonight's stitching is this: tent over one on 40 count linen is tiny.
I now need to stare off into the distance and rest my eyes.
I pulled out my BJ ornaments and tried to do a queen stitch with one ply of silk. Couldn't see it. Got out my lighted magnifier and still couldn't see well enough to find the right holes. Sigh.
I got out the 32 ct linen and will start again. Actually a larger ornament might be nice?
looks lovely ;)
ReplyDeleteWell worth your effort! It's very pretty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work! Hope you have a great light and magnification, hahaha! I'd sure need it.
