C-O-N-F-E-T-T-I

The word of today is "confetti."

I started a new project using the lovely green Aida I got for 75 cents at SCRAP.  It's going to look like this:


It's called "Marsh Marigolds on Logan's Creek" out of a 1989 Cross Stitch and Country Crafts mag.  The designer paints, so this is based off one of her paintings.

Keyword:  painting.

Painting = confetti stitches

The confetti is almost worse than Snow White Discovers the Cottage (which is based off a Kinkade painting). On small pieces, I normally don't mark the stitches but the colors run so close together that I had to break down and make a working copy.

This is what it looks like so far:
