It's really interesting to read about how projects came to be. One of my very first finishes when I started stitching over 25 years ago was a Teresa Wentzler - a castle with courtly figures under it. It was stitched on linen/evenweave, with blended threads and metallics. I didn't realise that it was supposed to be difficult and just stitched it! I don't think I would even attempt it now...Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00232260304792574971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213240850696097245.post-36717987382296089672015-09-01T13:51:22.225-04:002015-09-01T13:51:22.225-04:00That's a lot of planning, and a lot of progres...That's a lot of planning, and a lot of progress - well done!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322676800314521539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213240850696097245.post-21621089207817001722015-09-01T10:04:03.846-04:002015-09-01T10:04:03.846-04:00I was scared as well at the beginning.

That's the only way :) Also very good lighting and super fine/pointy scissors.D1-D2https://www.blogger.com/profile/03520044024915591288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213240850696097245.post-25335073738425355942015-08-31T17:36:31.661-04:002015-08-31T17:36:31.661-04:00Dima love your background history on peacock tapes...Dima love your background history on peacock tapestry. It's fun learning how a pattern/project evolves in a stitcher's hands. I am so jealous of edelweiss, you do such beautiful cutwork. I on the other hand will probably never get up enough nerve to try it. Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10062765270334011147noreply@blogger.com
