The last two weeks saw me with a horrible cold, so it was too difficult for me to stitch - I would have frogged everything since I was too dizzy to sit up. I managed to work and get my job done, but then I would crash at the end of the day. So, finishing this (Finally!) was a very cool accomplishment.
The fabric is by Stephanie and is called Ice Goddess. It is 28 count Opal Lugana. I used Valdani M-49, Subtle Elegance for the borders because I wanted a lace-look and feel to the piece.
Each stitcher is given free reign on the piece. I have told everyone that I want them to pick something that is their favorite or best represents them.
Happy Squeeee!!! Now, this piece is off to it's first destination - South Africa!!
Oh my heart did a jump when I saw the first destination! Can't wait to see who the fellow South African stitches. Does he/she have a blog addie by any chance?
ReplyDeleteAnd I think your choices for your RR are fantastic together.
Thanks! Nikki Loans is in various Facebook groups, but I don't think she has a blog going.
