A work in progress. I am loving stitching when I can lately, it is so relaxing. You can see I have still used the red Iron On Transfer Pencil. This one and one other pattern I traced at the same time I transferred the dreaded
santa stitchery. (that went in the bin by the way, it was beyond saving especially after I
tried to save it I made it worse!!!) Only this time I know not to deviate off the line. Also with this colour scheme I think it works well having a
pinky background to the stitches. I am just being very careful now I
know the pencil doesn't wash out!

Your stitching looks fab.
How's your collage/art stuff going?
I'm not a tracer, but just draw my designs onto the calico. I use a normal led pencil and a rubber. It works just as well, and the rubber gets rid of any mistakes. I've been embroidering lately too. I put a WIP on my blog if you'd like to see it. I should have some designs up soon for people to trace and use themselves. Keep sewing!
Dontcha just love the way stitches look way up close like that!
Love how even your stiching is linda looks really good
The colors you use are gorgeous! I'm looking forward to the finished project!
I always seem to have trouble with those sometimes you-do and sometimes-you-don't wash out pens...they dement me.
OMG! How neat are those stitches!!!
Hello, thanks for stopping by!
Lovely hand stitching, something I just don't get the time to do.
