Fragile Landing - KLT Charting - FINISH


I picked up Fragile Landing to work on as my next piece.  I started this during Stitch Maynia 2016 and hadn't worked on it since.  I had a piece of 28 count opal evenweave in an ice dye from Jodyri Designs and thought this design would look good on it as it lets the fabric show through all the gaps.  I stitched it with DMC 310 for the outlines and the Dragonfly was stitched with a hand dyed cotton from Crafty Kitten called Aurora.  Unfortunately this chart is no longer available.

I certainly didn't expect to finish this piece on this round of stitching but I was really enjoying it so just kept going. 







The bottom left hand corner of black lines was out somewhere, so at this point I had to unpick most of that section.



Keep stitching and smiling

Stitch Maynia 2016 - Day 2 - Fragile Landing by KLT Charting - 02.05.16

If you haven't heard of Maynia before please see my post from 1st May - don't want to repeat myself everyday and bore everyone.

My day 2 project is called Fragile Landing and it was charted by Kim at KLT Charting - unfortunately this chart is no longer available but she has loads more gorgeous charts so go and have a look.  She also sells hand dyed fabric and DMC threads at a very reasonable price and she has excellent customer service.

This is a picture of the chart:-


I am stitching this on a 28 count Ice Dyed opalescent from Jodyri Designs.  It took a long while for me to find a project I wanted to stitch on this gorgeous project but I thought this one was perfect as the fabric will show through in the "holes".  I am stitching 2 over 2 full crosses.  I decided to do the outline in DMC 310 and I am stitching the Dragonfly in a hand dyed floss from Crafty Kitten called Aurora.

Here's the picture of the progress I made today:


Keep stitching and smiling
