A sweet free design finish!

 





Design:  Forever In My Heart "Snowflake 2001 Needleroll"

Link:  November 2024 newsletter Newsletters | Fiberworks

Started: Monday, November 18, 2024

Finished: Tuesday, November 26, 2024@1230

Fabric: Zweigart 28 count Lugana in Navy Blue

Fibers: Waterlillies by Caron in Pearl, Kreinik #4 Braid in color 032.

Notes: The free design calls for beads.  I did not like the way the beads looked so I used the Kreinik braid to stitch small Smyrna crosses over 2 threads.  This gave the piece some sparkle and I really liked how it looked. For the center I used a single earring I had that was missing it's mate.  I cut the back off and centered and stitched the clear nylon thread I have, to attach it to the lugana.  I love how this looks.  The photos I took did not do it justice.  I asked my very talented little sister to photograph this project and she did a much better job.  Thank you Ginger! Love you bunches!
