Ophelia, by Millais

Post by LadyS »

Hey everyone.

I was wondering if anyone know of any charts for this painting, by Millais, the one where she's floating in the water, dying or dead.

So far I found two options, but am happy with neither.

The first one uses 54 DMC colors and I thought the end result wasn't as pretty and clear as the charts HAED does.

The second one seems more like the quality we get from HAED but I only found it for US$39 which I found was extreme for the pattern alone, plus it uses 116 colors, which is also more than I think it should have. One site also has the kit for US$199, yikes! The finishes product looks amazing, though, but it's way too much money for a pattern or a kit.

So if anyone know of this chart either in between as far as colors go, or the nicer one for an affordable price, please let me know.

This is the painting.

Have you tried the Scarlet Quince site?? I think Golden kite has this pattern too but I am sure it's more than 39.00. Good luck finding it.

Scarlet Quince doesn't have this painting, although they have another one by Millais.

Golden Kite is the one who has it for US$ 199 the kit, and US$ 39 the chart alone. I love love love this painting and would be static about stitching it, but 40 bucks for a pattern seems rather steep.

That is indeed way more affordable, I'll check it out, although it seems the end result is less detailed. Thank you for finding one more though!
