My Lady's Quaker finish....

"My Lady's Quaker"--Jardin Privé
Stitched on 28 ct. evenweave & DMC 930/932

I decided I needed to finish this before the year end and spent the last two days stitching. I decided to leave the alphabet off...just couldn't stitch anymore. I lost interest in the piece I thing because of all the unintentional "alterations" I made to the original design (i.e. mistakes I was too lazy to rip out!) I do like the end result with the colors and hope to hang in my bedroom once framed.

My Lady's progress...

I have let myself get distracted with other stuff but did put some stitches in My Lady this weekend. I do love the colors (DMC 930/932) and it has been a good stitch. Just need to get busy and get it finished! They all look great and kudos to all of the finishes!

Better late than never...

28 Antique White Jobelan
DMC 930/932
Well...I finally started last night. After much indecision over the thread colors, I chose form over fashion and went with colors that will go in my bedroom, the future home for this beauty. I was all ready to use a pink/green combo until y'all posted the My Gentleman's Quaker. I just know I will have to stitch it and I don't think those are his colors.

I love everyone's colors and can't wait to see your progress! So far...I am loving this stitch and actually like the two colors I chose. Happy stitches.
