OVER THE MOON



 Dog Taxi by Sam Toft
Fernsby Hall Tapestries
10ct painted canvas

The kit came with Appleton wool, but I am going to switch that out for DMC perle cotton. I think the coverage will be better and working with perle cotton will be much nicer for me than wool. I will definitely mount this one on stretcher bars, which means I might have to dust off the floor stand for when it comes time to stitch. (I asked Santa Claus for a System 4, so we'll see if I've been naught or nice.)

In the meantime, I am just so very very tickled with this, Dearies! What a wonderful way to start the weekend!

  5. Floss is definitely preferable. And, not only does it not beard up, but it gives a nice sheen to the work.
