Hardly any progress at all on this tiny area. I tried criss-cross hungarian and thought it looked too much like the diamond on the overcoat. I tried byzantine with smrynas and thought the stitch too big for the area. I tried the double stitch and thought it was too thick. This is a basic mosaic with variation. The mosaic stitch is three strands of silk and the row of stitches in between is the Neon Rays I used on the rhodes hearts in the white area. Still not sure I am satisfied. I hope I have time to work on it today.

When I got home from dinner last night, I was too cold and tired to stitch. I got in bed and started looking on the internet for charms for my Helowise canvas. I found a wonderful website called Susan Clarke Originals(susanclarkeoriginals.com). What a broad selection of buttons and charms. Before I knew it I had $100 worth of buttons and charms in my cart! If you are looking for little embellishments, I recommend it.
Hi Steph,
ReplyDeleteThe angel is coming out great. Your work is beautiful - don't be so critical.
Thank you for the tip on Susan Clarke Originals. I am off to investigate.

Linda-Thanks for the positive remark. I hope you enjoy roaming around Susan Clarke's website. I sure did. My Visa is a little worse for the wear because of it!
ReplyDeleteSteph, your images of the canvases and stitches are so clear. Wonderful photography! ~ sarah
ReplyDeleteThank you. Those are from the IPhone 4S. They now have an app that allows you to download straight from the phone to the blog. Isn't that nice?
