It is begun!
My fingers have been itching to start this new cross stitch project
since I completed my last one Here
It for this new stitch along ...
I was working exclusively on my upcoming blog hop project so this one had to wait.
I am already a week behind, but this does not matter to me.
I stitch at my own pace and enjoy the slow stitching journey.
These are my first stitches for the fences around the houses.
I am thinking white picket.
I am using the variegated Classic Colorworks floss I have been
gathering in my floss stash for a few months.
My aida is 14 count DMC in light seafoam green.
I have not stitched on 14 count in many years.
I hope my eyes are up to the task.
I use my bright magnifying lamp.
I am, also, using a 24 Bohn needle whereas my other recent projects
were done with a larger 24 needle.
I am using four strands.
I know most people do only two strands for this count fabric,
but I can see four better.
Works for me ... :-)
Happy Stitching!
