Cross Stitch Greetings

[badly_knitted]

I've finally managed to finish a set of really fiddly designs. The pictures don't show it very clearly but they used 15 colours, some of which were so similar I couldn't see the difference except in bright daylight. There's also a lot of backstitch, and one of the designs I had to start again after accidentally dropping my yogurt on the first

"... after accidentally dropping my yogurt on the first attempt...

Are you sure it was accidental or in response to having to use 15 different colours? :)

ps - they look lovely!

Definitely accidental, it splodged my stitching, the magazine I was working from, and ended up in my lap so I had to change - once I'd rescued my stitching. It was the third design out of four and I'd only just started, but I was annoyed at having to cut a fresh piece of fabric and start again.

Thank you, I think it was worth the effort.

Thank you! They were a lot of work, but worth it.

Thank you! Some of the toughest stitching I've done recently.

[spikesgirl58]

I can believe that.

I'm doing something much easier now. =)
