It's Deja Vu LOL You know, when you are somewhere or see something you've experienced before? Yup! Here I am starting a new project that wasn't in my wish list and isn't a WIP I was hoping to finish. Ah well...you know when you have an attack of "startitis" best to go with the flow. It all happens when I'm searching for something, and I run across some things I've had set aside. I don't think I found what I was looking for...but did think I really wanted to start this one. Blue crabs are a specialty here in Maryland. They even wrote a song about them...lol. When I found Quaker Blue Crab last fall I knew I had to stitch it. It was all kitted up, and just staring at me while I was looking for something else...haha. Anyway...here's where I am this morning. I'm stitching this over one on 36 count Marvelous Fortnite with Gentle Arts Sampler Threads Deep Sea floss. There's a lot of stitches in this little pattern...I hope I will still be able to see when I'm done...LOL! The fabric is a much brighter turquoise than this picture shows.
What are you stitching on today? Happy Stitching!
You are making awesome progress on the Blue Crab, DJ. Today, I will be working on the piece for the complimentary SAL I am doing with a friend this year. Hope you have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love the Stitch What You Want vibe! I also like a Quaker animal so it will be fun to see this grow.
ReplyDeleteI’ve just got my IHSW post up so you can see my progress pics there.
Haha I get it completely. Why I have so many pieces in WIP haha.
ReplyDeleteHi DJ: I have done the same thing then realize I have stitched this before; I just keep going.
ReplyDeleteI am going to have to look up the crab songs, giggles.
The fabric and thread color are perfect together.
