Podolyanka's Cross Stitch 2021

Not to mention the questionable anatomy of her shoulder and upper arm joint...

run away! run away!

I wish you had not mentioned that It put a new meaning to dislocated shoulder

Jo

It just hurts to think about it.

To begin with, her hair looks as if eaten by moth. Her top looks terrible- like an underwear (combinations?) which was in fashion until 1970s. Compare her right and left sleeves! Looks like she was created by a different designer than the guitarist. Anyway, I dont feel like stitching her.

It's OK Lyudmila...I wasn't being serious!!

And now you've shown us the picture....Well
Certainly her hair looks like a birds nest and she isn't anatomically correct either!!

[Mabel Figworthy]

Much better to stick with the guitarist

[Squirrel]

Me thinks that is one to put away out of sight and forget it. There would be no pleasure in it at all.

[Podolyanka]

Fianished- strings and all!

[Steam.Jo]

Well done

Have you found something nice to make next?

[Serinde]

All six strings accounted for. You've done a marvellous job with this piece (as usual).

[Podolyanka]

I have 4 WIPs at the moment: two easter towels(one can wait till spring), Dimensions' "Coming Home for Christmas", "The Map of the Old World " by Janlynne... At this I am a one piece at a time person, so am pressing on on the birthday Easter towel for January. By the way, the Guitarist is off to his new home tomorrow. The recepient will come to collect the picture as he cant wait to have it framed and put up the wall next to his guitar.

After that picture and especially, attaching the strings, the work on the Easter towel(full stitches in 3 strands) is going like a song.

[Squirrel]

An AWESOME FINISH. WELL DONE LYUDMYLA. I an sure that the recipient will be speechless with joy at seeing this masterpiece.

Have just received this photo- my work in the interior.

[Podolyanka]

This is actually the last large project for this year. Now am stitching an Easter towel and in parallel- 2 tiny tigers on plastic canvas for son's and for daughter's trees.

[Mabel Figworthy]

It looks absolutely perfect there!

[Squirrel]

That is FABULOUS sitting there with the instrument beside it.

[Serinde]

Oh, that is perfect!

[rcperryls]

Perfectly perfect!

Carole

[Podolyanka]

Thank you all for your kind words. Here is my current WIP- another Easter towel.

[Squirrel]

I love that colour scheme very autumn for sure.

[Mabel Figworthy]

Is the shape in the middle a loaf? A particular Easter loaf?

[wendywombat]

Have just received this photo- my work in the interior.

I've just seen this!! Perfectly displayed next to the guitar.
How perfect is that?!!
