Angel of Cross Stitch

The first (alphabetically) of my 30+ Stitch Maynia pieces was back in the hoop yesterday! I was excited to get to work on Angel of Cross Stitch by Joan Elliott again.


The last time I worked on her, I didn't get very far in my start. I made a goal to try to finish all the white in her skirt on the page I was working on, since it would give a good guide for the skirt details and moving beyond it, and I succeeded! Here is where I stopped yesterday:


Yay! It's very difficult to tell in this picture, but I'm doing this on 28 Jobelan in Seafoam from Hand Dyed Fabrics By Stephanie, which is a beautiful, subtle green color which is just lovely. It's just hard to capture it in a picture!

Until next time!
