Cathy's Week three WIP


I'm really enjoying working on this piece! Here's this week's progress.  Worked with HDF (I don't think we have a WIP in anything else on this blog) on Cream Newcastle Linen.

Week 2 all done!

Here's this weekends work on our beautiful spot sampler. I tried scanning the stitching this time around just to see if the colours show up better. The fabric is cream newcastle and I am working 1 over 2 with HDF threads. I'll come back and update this post when I know the colours used for the two motifs I stitched this week. I'm really pleased with how it is looking so far. Thank you Martina for such a lovely pattern to work with.

Cathymk's first page completed.

Hello folks, here is my start on the Spot Sampler mystery 2008. I'm stitching mine on 40ct Cream Newcastle with Vikki Claytons Hand-dyed Fibers (HDF). The colours I have used thus far are: Ultra violet 2125 (upper left motif), Limited edition 1453/1455/2125 (for the one below it) and the large motif to the right is stitched with Ultra Maroon 1455.

I am planning to introduce Ultra Maroon 1453, another LE colour - 2125/2115/1455 and Nosegay 2115 as the sampler progresses.

I had these colours sitting in my stash for a while and I have to admit, I was pleased to hear about this project so I could finally get them out and stitch with them. I think that is why it stitched up so quickly this time around!

I'm looking forward to following everyone's progress! Happy stitching!
