The flamingo looks like its progressing well.<br />Sweet little Easter design.<br />Stumpwork looks so complicated, perhaps i'll have to hop over from your link and check it out in more detail.<br />Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13863899802782756191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652096409954439984.post-36756615173007265392018-05-28T10:55:47.416+01:002018-05-28T10:55:47.416+01:00Lovely pieces!AriadnefromGreece!Lovely pieces!AriadnefromGreece!Ariadnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04758280304985620260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652096409954439984.post-73895887135124633862018-05-25T17:16:55.447+01:002018-05-25T17:16:55.447+01:00I love your Vintage Rose embroidery, Barbara.

But maybe I just wasn't skilled at making the grids tight!<br /><br />The face stumpwork looks so interesting! I like that style of craft but have never attempted it. A face would probably be a dangerous place to start haha :Drosey175https://www.blogger.com/profile/00418995945160843165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652096409954439984.post-26008891769099888552018-05-22T00:43:42.952+01:002018-05-22T00:43:42.952+01:00I come back to tell you that I am going to try the...I come back to tell you that I am going to try the stumpwork portrait too, Barbara.

In all the years of stitching I never used grids, and many a time I was annoyed to see I’d gone off stitching in the wrong direction! Yes, even on small projects! I think I am a convert now, and will probably use grids on all my stitching in future, especially if it means I don’t have to “rip out” rows of stitches, and hopefully I won’t have visits from “the frog”! Fingers crossed!<br />Hugs,<br />Barbara xxxFlashinScissorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408946289711452871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652096409954439984.post-89745141325608408182018-05-19T11:33:45.587+01:002018-05-19T11:33:45.587+01:00Thank you Pamela!
