Sharing something I found

I don't often share links, but this struck me as interesting.

Stage 2 done!

Well, my goal of finishing this piece in 24 hours, has sailed off into the distance. I had an epiphany last night, and I'm adding in some leaves. I'll have a picture, later.
Happy stitching, everyone!

Main part done, 26 hours

I've given the stitching a nice bath. That spiffed (no auto correct,  I will never want to type 'spiff ed') up the french knots, nicely. Time to add the pearls, and maybe some opals.

Hour 19 of the 24 hour project

Hi folks! I'm back at the studio, and feeling better.  The gold border is done, and the dark purple french knots are put in next to the fleurs-de-lis. Time to finish up the black french knots,  and the black border, and it's into its bath. (After its bathtime I'll add the pearls, and maybe opals.)
