Tou's Normal WIPs
Posted: Thu Sep 08, 2016 9:44 am
Hi everybody! I signed up a while ago, but just now getting around to posting.
(What is normal, anyway?! Oh well.)
Here's my current "big" project
It's finished size will be about 4.5"x4.5" on 18ct. I can't bring myself to do cross stitch much bigger than that because I get bored easily and I feel it goes so slowly! But it's a really cute kit, I'm enjoying it a lot, and I have two more from the same set. It'll look a lot better once i can put the topstitching on it.... I plan to finish this one before Christmas this year, then do the other two for future years.
That's currently my only non-game WIP, but last year I finally finished a Crewel project I'd been picking at for several years:
This one is much larger at about 30" tall. It was a kit my mom had given me; she doesn't really enjoy embroidery with this much freedom to the stitches. Personally, I really enjoy the freedom and result of regular embroidery, and I also love that Crewel yarn is much thicker than floss; everything goes much faster. I only wish that it was easier to find these days [emoji47] However, my mom did find some Crewel projects my great-grandmother had been working on and passed them along to me. I'll get to them someday.
