Summer Stitching SAL
This is a facebook stitch-a-long I have joined. The page has 7 designers and the stitch-a-long is using any of their designs.
The designs I have chosen to do are shown below:
KLT's Celtic Butterfly *Now completed so no progress photos sorry*
Stitched on a hand dyed fabric called Frost which is a 28 count opal evenweave dyed by Chromatic Alchemy, and by using hand dyed thread - Purplicious for the body and Purple Campanula for the wings. Both thread colours were dyed by Thread Pickerz Silks.
Charting Creations Tribal Dragon
I have decided to stitch this on hand dyed fabric with hand dyed thread.
The fabric is called Ashardalon Breathes in a 28 count opal evenweave dyed by Chromatic Alchemy. The thread is called Purplicious by Thread Pickerz Silks
