I was excited when my linen came in the mail yesterday! I got the suggested 32-count Permin Lambswool. I am using the suggested threads. The only difference is that I am stitching one over one instead of two over two.
I was able to start on it last night. I was very pleased with the one over one look. Since I have always stitched two over two, I had not expected the motifs to turn out that small, haha.
I am just going to post one picture here - but I will have other pictures posted on my blog tomorrow (6/5/09).
Have a great day, and HAPPY STITCHING!
looking great thus far!!!!! I really debated about doing mine over 1, but opted for over 2.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely start over one! I have heard people say that there may be over one sections in the chart in the center section, which means you wouldn't have enough space if you change the rest of it to over one. I wanted to post to let you know that in case you didn't.
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the headsup... I wonder if I would run in any problem.... I hope not! :(
Jacqueline has a new post on the Needlprint blog saying that she will re-chart the name section for those stitching over one so that you won't have a problem. Your little stitches are so lovely, I can't wait to see more!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jenny. Now I will be able to sleep better tonight! :) Happy Stitching.
