I am on the final stitches of my project so I thought it was high time I showed it to you. This project looks so simple, but I have started it three times! (I will explain my difficulty in an upcoming post.)
The original design from Xs and Ohs is in black and white, but I like to mix things up a bit and I chose to use DMC 939 and 18-count Fiddlers Aida from Charles Craft. I am working hard to keep the dang border in the right place. I have already "frogged" a few times, but I am ready to whip this thing out this afternoon! (I hope)
My fabric is super wrinkly as you can tell - I am bad to wad up fabric and that is why I tend to prefer q-snaps or stitching frames instead of hoops. But, I am using my favorite Clover hoop for this baby!
And, in case you wondered, this project is for ME. I give away a lot of my stitched stuff, but I chose this project to stitch for me and myself alone.
