Veiled woman

Post by Mrsmoocow »

Hi there, just to show you my current project, changed the eye colour to brown as didn't like the blue that was used. Other half way through in about three weeks, although have had lot of time to stitch due to being poorly.

Thank you, it was a bargain, bought it at hobby craft for twenty pounds, but it had even weave in it. So bought bit of 18 ct Aida for three pounds. All up twenty three pounds, the sticker price is fifty one on the kit

My kind of picture.

Looks great & those eyes are compelling. So important to get every stitch right in them, which you've done. Smashing.

Regards,

Richard.

Beautifully unusual and wonderfully stitched. Like the others I am so glad you changed the eye colouring as they look perfect with the other colours.

Hi all

Thought it was time for an update. Have also posted the blue eyes version for comparison, think the brown wins hands down for me.
