Crown of Creation Update
I've been battling a bit of depression lately, so bare with me on the updates. I haven't even stitched the last couple of days. I spent yesterday evening getting the key for Angel of Frost ready to put on the Loran project cards. I haven't worked on a project with blends since I started using the cards for my threads, and I'm not yet exactly sure how that is going to work. The day before, well, let's just say it wasn't such a good day.
I'm feeling better now and finally got Crown of Creation off the scroll rods and scanned:
The scan really doesn't do it justice. I did a lot of experimenting with the sparklies in this one. I started off with one strand of BF, then switched to two. Then I tried two with the carrier thread removed and finally I tried a half stitch with #4 braid. I figure the final piece is going to be so huge that no one is going to notice a bit of wonkiness!
I'm stitching her on 25 count pink Lugana, full cross 1 x 1.
