Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Oct 2020
I finished the Wyoming State Capitol back in August. This design is packed with fractional and back stitching, but it’s worth it.
(I’m still working on trying to replace lost images.)

Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Mar 2021
Looking really good. What is fun about a piece like this is you have so many mini finishes as you make your overall progress!

Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Mar 2021
I love the effect of fractional and back stitching.
My current picture doesn’t include the 1/4 stitches. Instead, the outlining will have blank corners, or if it’s inside the picture it will kind of look like the colour bleeds through. I don8t like that...so I just add the 1/4 stitches myself because I think it looks much neater.

Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Apr 2021
Lovely addition. Lots of mini finishes must make this even more fun to stitch!

Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Apr 2021
I’ve been up in Cheyenne for the past week (dog sitting my grand dogs while my son and daughter-in-law are at work). Yesterday I decided to take pictures of what I’ve stitched so far on the Cheyenne sampler. I thought it might be fun for you to see the real things. (And yes, the sky really was that blue!)
This is the Governor’s Mansion:
And here is the Wyoming State Capitol:
And lastly, here is the railroad depot (excuse the sunbeam across the picture):

Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Apr 2021
Can see them now. (How odd!) Good pics, and the design reflects them well. Oh, for the days when railway stations were temples to travel!
Re: fccs’s Cheyenne Apr 2021
I agree. It's fun to see how close the stitching is to "the real thing"
