It was model stitched on 40 count hand dyed linen from Lakeside Linen in Vintage Sand Dune using Gloriana Silks. This design can easily be stitched using one color of floss but I chose to add additional colors to create depth and definition to the piece. Colors include Cranberry (main color), Rosewood (optional), and Cinnamon (optional). I also added just a touch of #4 Petite Gold Braid (also optional). I truly enjoyed designing and stitching this one and hope you will also. You can also stitch the smaller motifs for smalls, ornaments, etc. Feel free to "change it up" to your own personal taste. I can visualize it in many different colors.
Until next time....
When I first saw this, the first thing I thought of was, "I wonder if she has a London one?". Sorry you don't, but I'm glad I found your blog (and I will be on the lookout for London!).
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. London/Great Britain is in the works along with Italy and an oriental design. I don't know which will be finished first but hang in there. It is coming!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful design....beautiful stitching. I would love to have you model stitch for me.
ReplyDeleteYour work is fabulous! I was going through the accounts on my website and saw that you had registered an account with me. I hope that I can be of service to you on some of your supplies.
