UFO WIP
Just a little look at how the UFO is turning into a WIP and how far I have managed to get to date.
After the pink flower to the left and a little of the pink flower to the right are worked that will be exactly half of the cross stitch needlepoint worked. When I started working it there had only been a couple of rows worked and I had to pull some of those down. So it is gradually coming along. That is three nights on the trot have managed to do some work. Have put in about 12 hours work so far. These projects are time consuming but they do give you something different for your home. I have some Sanderson's Peony fabric which I shall back this panel up with once completely worked. Has all the right colours in.
Catch up a little later.

Lots of lovely shades in the picture-I like the sound of your fabric too. Catriona
ReplyDeleteThank you Catriona. The same shades are within the fabric I intend to use, but I might also frame the tapestry on the front with a cream fabric band patchwork style to give the cushion panel more substance and then just back up with the floral and maybe a frilled edge. Jury out at the moment. The idea is to mix and match a lot of different floral needlepoint panels with similar and same colours and then even though they are all different that they will blend in with each other as well as being individual. Will see what happens. Take care and hope you are keeping well. Tricia xx
DeleteYou have done well Patty, it's beautiful - well done you xx
ReplyDeleteHi Trudie, glad you like it. Have done a little more since the pictures but still a way to go and at least its making me believe I am achieving something which is part of the ongoing battle with the UFOs and the crafting stash. I will get there. Hope you are keeping well. Tricia xx
DeleteBeautifully done - a real work of art!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lefting. I am no expert, I make mistakes but I try and make each piece I do better than the one that went before it. I hope you are keeping well. Take care Tricia xx
