It's TUSAL time again! For those of you new to blogging, the TUSAL is a project run by Daffycat, click on the button on the right hand bar for more details.
Here is my ORTS jar posing with the current stitching projects:
On the left we have You Were Hatched by Teresa Wentzler. Here is what it looked like last week with just the green and blue stitched:
Here is the addition of yellow:
And now the pinks:
The fabric colour is a much better likeness in the middle photo. It is a very pale lilac 28 count evenweave. I have lots of backstitch to do and then a celtic knot border.
Here is the other project in the photo, a new start! Bonus points for anyone who can identify the design or even guess what it might be.
stitched on 32 count linen
I finished my Just Nan Big Bee, Little Bee and intended to put it on a scrapbook page along with Beehive Violets but I got sidetracked by re-mounting an older piece which had gone "saggy" in the frame.
Remember this one from 2013? It was a FB SAL from Threadpickerz:
stitched on 32count white evenweave with De Havilland rainbow silks
Finally, we all like a bit of beading on our projects and I know some of my followers actually make things from beads so I thought you might like to see these I found on Mr X-Stitch's blog:
They were made for an event called Battle of the Beadsmith and there's a FB group and an older website if you want to see more beautiful beading.
Wow, great stitching and love the beading.

Ooo beautiful progress! I love that the dragons is on a purple fabric I think it makes it pop!
ReplyDeleteBeads! Thanks for the link, can't wait to look at it.
ReplyDeleteWow, great progress! You were hatched is looking awesome. But a great side effect of your marathon that you are getting this done now! The news thing kind of looks like come Just Nan ghostie, but I'm looking forward to see what it actually is :)
ReplyDeleteAnd holy cow, that beaging is amazing! I used to work with beads a lot, but nothing anywhere as stunning as this!
I love the building of colours it looks amazing. And that beading project is amazeballs. My mum would love it, she's the beader in the fam.
