Have I lost my mojo?

Glinda the Good Witch by Melissa Shirley


I like this

Maybe-too small

Maybe-too big, too pale, yuck
I tried all kinds of stitches on Glinda the Good Witch last night.  None of them worked except the yellow brick wall.  I think I will go back to Sunday Meeting.  I have a guide for that.

  1. What about the magi? I think Melissa S. has a guide for Glenda?

  2. Waiting on Colleen to open. She is closed on Mondays. I have heard that Aristeia has a guide for Glinda. If I get too frustrated, I might look in to that. How goes the stocking?

  3. Have you considered one of those "barely thre" stitches from Amy for her dress? It would show the changing colors if you use one or two plies. I am using this technique on Alice in some areas as the shading is so beautiful I don;t want to hide it and stitching over it will never give the same effect. A thought

    1. Good idea. For some reason I thought the gown should be rich looking. Meaning heavy coverage.

    1. Isn't it great? From the mind of Amy Bunger. The stitch guide is available through her store, Amy's Golden Strand in Memphis, TN.
