Hi,
I'm making this cross stitch and black work Celtic knot wedding sampler.
I hope the bride likes it. It's a surprise, but with some help I was able to try and colour match it, to her colours if the day.I am completing it on 14ct aida as I had done available without having to go out and buy more.
For the cross stitch I am using 3 threads. I was using 4 but found it too bulky. (So I ended up frogging the whole knot and doing it again)
For the blackwork I am using 2 threads. I didn't like the coverage with only 1. To try and keep nice straight lines I am rail roaring each stitch as I go.
I'll add some more pics when I take them. I'm currently a lot further then the pics I have.
Hi,
Okay so I can't figure out (or remember) how to edit my post so I'm going to have to update you all this way.
This is where I am currently up to 1/5/2022. I have finished 1 full page. Have the border to go on 3 pages and the name and date to add under the knot.
If anyone wants to share with me how to edit posts to update it would be greatly appreciated. (Ps I am only on my iPhone to post this, as well)
Well cheers everyone. I hope you are all doing well.
Hi All,
So I have finished it and given it as a present. Let me know what you all think. Thanks for following.Although don't have any photos of it framed.
