Great progress! Does the peacock have lots of colours in it?
ReplyDeleteActually, the peacock is not stitched at all. In Assisi work, you stitch the background only. The object comes to life with a little backstitch. Stay tuned and I'll show you!
ReplyDeleteLooking good Marnie. That blue is just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour peacock looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHere's some luck from me!
