The Medieval Town Mandala

Yesterday I spent some wonderful time working on The Medieval Town Mandala from Chatelaine.


I love, love, love, LOVE this piece. It's entirely done in specialty threads, no DMC whatsoever, and it's just a wonderful pleasure to work on. This is how I far I got yesterday:


I'm holding off on the beading until the end, but I am doing the backstitching and specialty stitches as I go along because this piece is entirely black and white rather than color and the backstitching can be very difficult to see. I figure doing it as I go along will be better for my sanity than waiting until the end!

Until next time!
