Tidbits
Needle Delights Originals
18 ct. mono canvas in ecru
Here are the threads that I used:
Caron Watercolours: Papapaya, Faded Linen, Natural, Blush, Orange Blossom, Mountain Meadow, Moss, and Apricot Blush.
Caron Waterlilies: Mountain Meadow
Vineyard Silks: Apricot Brandy, Pale Honey, Shell, Sahara, and Peppermint
Kreinik #12 braid: 221, 273
If you decide to do this one in your own colorway, please don't fret about the placement. I didn't and think the results are pretty swell. I just tried to pull threads that were somewhat complementary to one another and then went for it.
Oh, and for all you math geeks out there: There are 192 blocks in this piece, each consisting of 81 stitches. That's a whopping 15,552 stitches in this here piece, kids. 15,552 stitches. WOO HOO!

ReplyDeleteIt's stunning, Coni! I've never done counted canvas work, but this piece is very tempting. All of the tiny squares remind me of Byzantine mosaics.
