Re: Jimi Hendrix
Great progress, Daz. Must be hard work stitching the blacks on black, but it's going to look brilliant when it's finished.

Re: Jimi Hendrix
Mini update... I've been working on the eyes, and having some major headaches stitching the darker colours on the back aida
VERY slow progress, but I'm getting there

Re: Jimi Hendrix
Daz, this is amazing! I'm sure that even though it's slow on the black, you'll feel encouraged as you see it develop. I feel excited seeing it appear!

The eyes start to make it come alive -- definitely worth the effort, Daz!

Re: Jimi Hendrix
It's going to look really effective when it's done, keep at it! don't be tempted to cheat and use all one "medium" shade of grey to fill in missing confetti bits... as I did when I was doing all the green grass bits in this.... http://www.abcstitch.com/optioncart/ima ... t=unicorns
Not sure if that will have worked, I've not tried posting a URL before, it's "Secret Garden" (unicorns) by Bucilla.

Re: Jimi Hendrix
Stunning work so far!
Re: Jimi Hendrix
Thanks for your supportive comments, much appreciated as ever. However, there's been very little progress on Jimi over the past few days off work due to me suffering a very heavy cold.
It's very difficult to concentrate on my stitching when I'm having to stop for the sniffles every minute or so
I'm hoping to get some done this coming weekend.

Re: Jimi Hendrix
Aww, hope you feel better quickly Daz. That horrible cold seems to be doing the rounds and definately outstaying it's welcome as well!
Get well soon! and then get that needle out and start stitching!! Am keen to see this one progress!

Re: Jimi Hendrix
Hope you soon feel better, Daz. Been there myself - felt diabolical the day I started my sunflowers and only managed to do about 10 stitches. Having your head down looking at your work makes your nose and eyes stream, doesn't it? Hope you shake it off quickly.
