So, I finished Mary's Lamb Sampler today. Here's the final result.
I figure it doesn't look bad considering I had no color or stitching chart to go with it. I would like to get it framed for the baby's room but it's a little larger and I'll probably have to wait.
Meanwhile, I switched projects from the carnival throw temporarily to WIP #2 which is "Do Not Meddle." I was further on it than I thought. Here's what it looks like currently:
I know there is some frogging to do somewhere. I am proceeding with caution. There are 6 colors of green used on the dragon and two of them are really really close together. I am using Raymond's method and have needles threaded with all the colors needed. I am doing a color section at a time and then switching to a different needle. I figure this way, I can figure out where I went wrong and rip instead of trying what I did before which was to start with the outline (made sense at the time....until I realized I was off by at least a stitch!).
Love the Little Lamb....that was quick.
ReplyDeleteStill curious when you'll have time for that Kinkade. It overwhelmed me at Hobby Lobby.
Hope the rest of the pregnancy goes well.
