Topic: Cross Stitch
Last week we had our Christmas workshop at the shop and one of the participants brought an absolutely stunning project. She had stitched the Dear Jane from Linda Myers on 40 count silk gauze! To top it off, she stitched the background with sewing threads and complete cross stitches! That makes for a total of 31684 stitches, not including the background border she did around the design.
The piece was soooooooo gorgeous, it made me want to pick up a Linda Myers design right away and start it on silk gauze. Then my conscience kicked in and reminded me that I am still working on two silk gauze projects. I will have to dig them up to show them to you.
Anyway, here is Anja's master piece. I forgot to put something next to it, but the whole piece is less than 6 inches square (15cm).
I cannot promise that I won't start a Linda Myers design on silk gauze any time soon .
