It's done! In under three months. I had to take two days off this week because I ran out of purple beads. Here's a close up for the detail on the head. A few notes for those deciding to stitch this design. While the pattern told me what I needed to stitch this, it failed to mention quantities. You will need two skeins for the following #'s. 420, 422, 677, 738, 792, 794. You will need minimal amounts of the following #'s. 991, 3346, 3765. You will also need 3 packages of Mill Hill 40252. On a different note, my cat decided to sleep on my clean robe.
I've returned to Dragon Carousel. For the time being. Unlike Sleepy Hollow, this is not a quick stitch. Lots of quarter stitches and blending filaments. I did however make this in the interim. Christmas Ornament for 2015 #1 is complete. I gave in to the 20% off sale at ABC Stitch although I refrained from Herrschners. Dragon by Artecy, Cookie Fairy, An Enchanted Daydream by Mystic Stitch, Winter Fairy, and Water. I also picked up this at Joann's which I had bypassed earlier in the year.
I really like the colours, and I'm impressed how you can keep track of all the confetti!
ReplyDeleteThe confetti is why I park. I'd go mad otherwise.
