Hello! August was a great stitchy month for me, made lots of progress during the Olympics, with the SAL event on Stitch Maynia (Facebook group). I also visited a LNS and picked up some variegated cotton thread for the big capital L at top left (Valdani "terra cotta").... haven't tried it yet though.
Previous progress:
Now:
I finished page 12 and set up my personalization section at the bottom, including some of the left border. After I placed the first letter of each line (they are centered), I realized a few extra motifs would help fill out the space. Some people commented on my Flosstube video and offered suggestions: entwined wedding rings and cupid with an arrow- I like both. Does anyone have recommendations for books with sampler motifs? I am looking forward to working on this project next weekend... maybe I'll try the Valdani thread.
Wow!! It is absolutely stunning! Great progress!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress! Love seeing this on flosstube.... I do like the idea of entwined wedding rings in gold. You could have doves with your cupids or even swans....
