Hi everyone! In dark times, there's always stitching to be done.
At our last check in I had finished a full 10 rows, or 80 out of 120, thanks to a weirdly delayed flight.
And thanks to a long weekend (the last one for MONTHS, unfortunately) I got another 10 rows completed--so I'm at 90 out of 120.
Exciting!
I also promised to show pictures of two projects I wrapped up just in time for Christmas. Of course, I didn't take pictures of one of them "made up", but you will get the idea.
First I made this for my friend Inga, who just moved from New York City to Miami. It's called Autumn in New York, by Embroidery and Sage.
All those French knots were REALLY DIFFICULT, but I loved the outlines of the buildings. I know Inga was going to miss NYC and especially changing seasons, so it seemed perfect.
Then I made this for my friend Rebecca who adores Paris. It's called "Rooftops of Paris", also by Embroidery and Sage.
I really enjoyed stitching this -- so many tiny lines!
I have another project I'm working on right now that's for an upcoming birthday, and I'll share it after it is gifted. I'll also keep working on "Noel", and hopefully will have 10 more rows done by our next check-in in three weeks.
Just loving the white against the red - such a pretty piece.
ReplyDeleteNoel is really progressing nicely. It is so pretty. I really like the other two unique projects that you gifted. I have never seen anything like them.
ReplyDeleteLoving your white work Sunny, it is so fresh looking and at the rate you stitch I am sure you will be Happy Dancing before we see you again. xx
ReplyDeleteI do not know why my comment game up at Anonymous but its Helen from the group xx
DeleteSunny, you are just cruising along on this, well done!
ReplyDelete3/4 finished already. It's looking fab! I like the trees but you must've had loads of patience to do all those French knots. Love the Paris rooftops. I haven't seen anything like that design before.
ReplyDeleteyay 3/4 of the way there with your white on red! and love the rooftops of Paris!
ReplyDeleteLoving all your projects especially NY as I am a transplant myself. She will love it. The red and white project is soooooo beautiful. It's going to be amazing when finished :)
ReplyDeleteThat's looking marvelous and may I say your embroideries are splendid!
