Parts 1 through 5 are now completed. I changed the tiny cutwork squares at the top to Algerian eyelets because I did not feel like wrestling with cutting out those openings in the thick Monaco fabric that I’m using. The coil filling also did a number of the fabric, partially because I had to pull so hard on the Monaco to try to get any sort of lacy effect. Note to self: do not attempt pulled work on Monaco again. Oh wait, that’s right… it was a Mystery!
[Photo removed. See finished project.]
Once again, it’s not the best photo, but hey, what do you expect with me holding the top scroll bar, trying to manipulate the fabric just right, keep the light steady and position the camera, all at the same time? That’s right, not much. 😉
Part 6 is the last installment and will include the hardanger work and the attachment of a few beads. I hope to complete the stitching sometime this week. Of course, I’ll post the happy dance as soon as it happens!
oooo! It’s looking so pretty! Has part 6 already come out or are we stuck with waiting? 🙂
It is really interesting. Should be fun to embellish & let the happy dance begin!!!
Oh Jenna! I so admire your hardanger ability! It is looking great!
Thanks for your kind comments on my blog-you always make me smile!
I have been away and don’t know how you have been lately, but I DO hope that your headaches (if any) are FEW and VERY far between.
hugs to you 🙂
It’s very lovely, Jenna!
Very pretty.
