TNT: Music Amongst the Trees
Ta da....another finish. This one was a long time coming. I've picked it up and put it back down many times since January of 2017. The chart nearly did me in. It's one of those on multiple pages that have to be put together where things meet. I'm not a fan of those.
Then there was the insane amount of color changes. So much floss to deal with.
I also finished the center section on the needlepoint project. This one has a ridiculous amount of color changes too and even worse.....the dreaded blended strands. I hate those. I should have just subbed them out from the beginning. I will from now on. Putting orange and yellow together to make a ratty looking gold made no sense. Why not just include some gold yarn?
Wow!! You are on a roll. So many finishes this year. Your latest is so pretty. And, nice start on the latest needlepoint piece.
ReplyDeleteHooray for a lovely finish and that needlepoint piece is impressive!
ReplyDeleteNice to have the one piece finished! The needlepoint is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with you on both points. I hate taping needlework patterns together. Also if you are going to make me piece things together how about you increase the font size so I don't have to squint. Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteYour finished stitchery is beautiful! I would smile every time I looked at it.
ReplyDeleteNever seen blended strands in needlepoint; my projects have always been super-beginner.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pieces. There might be a lot of threads but they are such gorgeous colors.
