Good morning everyone!
For today’s WIP Wednesday I have 3 things to show off!
First up is the Magic Kingdom SAL from Cunning Cross Stitch!
From this:
To this:
January is done! Ariel is soooooo cute! I love it so far! Next up is February which features Alice in Wonderland. I noticed a lot of people in the Facebook group were having some trouble with parts of the Alice section standing out against the background but I hope it works out for me. We shall see!
Next up is an itty bitty progress on the Olde World Map.
Last time:
Now:
I only stitched on this for maybe 2 hours this week but I was able to finish the mountain range in South America, add a little of the inside to the nameplate, and started working on the tree under the globe. Next time I work on this I’ll probably try to finish up the inside of the globe. I always tell myself I will but then get distracted by a different area! This section has the tree, sun, half a boat, and the border left!
And last but not least, my non cross stitch work-in-progress... the Game of Thrones face masks for my Mom. I’m starting with rebuilding the Lion and the Dragon first before I make the Dire Wolf. So far on the Dragon, I’ve finished rebuilding the base that the face mask is mounted on.
Nice work on Ariel. I did look up the design and agree that the Alice block is a little hard to make out. I'd suggest a little backstitch or stitching with background with one strand and the figures with two. It's a technique I use quite often.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking along the same lines! Either stitch the background areas with one strand or as half stitches
DeleteLovely progress. Ariel is so cute!
