I must have done something horrible in a previous life.
I had a Zoom meeting this morning--Western Reserve Sampler Guild, absolutely lovely group of people who have fantastic programs--and I thought this would be a great time to start working on the panel in the middle of Carmen.
Nine rows of letters.
This is how much I have done.
The thread is just slightly darker than the fabric.It's 46 count fabric.
We all know that lettering, especially alphabets, is not my favorite thing to stitch. I must have been a terrible person then to have this kind of punishment now.
I love the acorns on the Queens Sampler - good for sticking it out with Montenegrin stitch, did you ever see the item on it by Thistle Threads (19th June 2018 post) - something I decided not to tackle, such a coward. Your work is so beautiful, all of it! Elaine in UK
ReplyDeleteThank you! I don't remember Trish's post but will look it up. I'm just glad Montenegrin finally made sense to me, at least enough to get this but worked.
DeleteMore wonderful work .
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week hugs June.
Thank you!
DeleteOh Ann, thank you for the chuckle. I know you aren't a terrible person, but you do seem to pick projects with letters and alphabets.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is that I like stitching samplers. Samplers seem to require letters. Ergo, I have to stitch letters if I am trying to stitch a fairly accurate reproduction. Maybe I need to not stitch samplers . . .
