Just a quick note to show my latest finish – the final stitches went into this piece on Sunday night, but I haven’t been able to take a good photo of it yet … so these photos will just have to suffice. It doesn’t do the colours justice, as the green fabric is a lot richer. Oh well, crappy photos are better than no photos at all … and it’s possibly going to be the final photo (if not post) before I head off on holiday.
“Summer Grace” by Calico Crossroads
stitched on a 32ct hand-dyed linen by Silkweaver
(whose name escapes me right now – Summer Meadow maybe??)
with recommended threads and MH Treasure (sheep)
I may try and scan this one later, or use my Nikon camera and see if I can get a more accurate result – my Lumix does a fantastic job of the close-ups, which is why I bought it, but the colour representation leaves a lot to be desired most of the time for these types of photos 😦
