CHS "Frederika" on 40ct Pearled Barley w/ recommended DMCI decided I wanted to track my progress on Frederika since it seems to be taking me forever to stitch this one! Now that most of the border is completed, I just love the color selection in this one. I still have to fill in the border but think the interior will go a little quicker. At least I have a little piece of the bird!
My mom is coming to visit this weekend and this will be her first trip since we moved! I can't wait to spend the day shopping and laughing with her. Hope you have a great weekend too and thanks for visiting. Happy stitches.....
Lovely, Karen!!! I have her and Frederick kitted and waiting. I'll enjoy watching your progress! Have a great time with your mom!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful blog and stitching. Thanks for popping by my blog. xx
ReplyDeleteI am seriously nutty for these darn birds! Is the DMC the only thread charted, or does it also give NPI? I keep feeling like I've seen someone doing it in NPI, and I wonder if it was their own conversion. Hmn.
ReplyDeleteIn any case, this is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing and enjoy your visitor!
I was thinking about getting this pattern
ReplyDeleteAre you enjoying the stitch ?
Looks wonderful so far
This is already looking fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI love the border on this design.
