I didn't stitch at all on Needleworker's Pocketbook. I need to finish the acorn row and move to eyelet/satin stitch row. That is my goal for today.
I finished the first "fan" on Brightneedle's Lady's Collection. I wanted to see if it was hard to sew together so I worked on finishing it. It is darling.
The whipping together of backstitches went fine but the white of linen shows through on the curved edges. The hardest part was lacing the linen to the skirtex.
I was flying by the seat of my pants on that, trying to get the linen around the curves to lay nicely. Now a needlebook insert goes in the top of each fan. I'm halfway done with one needlebook insert.
I want to finish it today so that I have one whole fan done.

Oh Amy, I love the fan. You know I'm sopping up the drool off my keyboard, don't you? LOL!
ReplyDeleteTwo lovely WIP's. The BN piece is so delicate. Great finishing.
ReplyDeleteI've done that project by Brightneedle few years ago.....it's lovely but finishing a little stressing.
