Stitching Progress

[tanthe]

Sunday night I finished part 2 of my St. Petersburg White Nights cross-stitch piece. Hopefully this weekend I'll manage to get part 3 completed. I'm hoping to catch up with the online class a bit over the next month or two (which is currently at part 9, with parts released monthly).

That is beautiful! I have to say, I admire your patience, I know I couldn't do it.

Holy god! That's gorgeous!

Beautiful, beautiful work.

And the picture doesn't even do all the sparkly metallics justice at all (or the colours... I took the picture inside with just a lamp and the flash, rather than natural light which helps a lot).

I can imagine. (I can never get good pictures of my crafties.)

I can't get over how gorgeous your cross stitch is. I can do samplers. I never knew there was stuff like this out there.

I never knew it either, until I found out my aunt was doing ones from this designer.

I bought/"inherited" this chart from my aunt after she passed away:

It's definitely nice to be able to have something physical in your hands that you made :) There's a lot of satisfaction to be had in creating actual things.

I've still got a lot of work to do before it's completed, but it'll be awesome when finished.

Oooh, good progress. I can't wait to see it when it's finished. :)

How many parts is it divided into?

12. It's a one year online class, and one part is released per month. Obviously you can stitch for longer than a year, but during the course of a year is when the Yahoo group for that class is up and running, and the chart parts released.
