It works after all!

Hello dear readers,

Here I am, typing about my needlepointing as usual. My horse project needs a certain color. I had that color, but the material of the yarn was not wool. It was cotton. I tried to use it as it was at first. Well, that did not work well at all. When I realized I had to make the yarn thinner, I tried it and it worked. Oh boy, you just have no idea how relieved I am! Now the horse picture has hope again.

If only I could choose!

Hello dear readers,

Here I am, typing about my needlepointing as usual.The project I call "Praying Child" is almost one of the FOs. It is the girl version. Now I wonder, if a next project should be one horse canvas or the boy version of the "Praying Child". Oh, decisions, decisions...

About the themes I like to stitch

Hello dear readers,

Here I am, typing about my needlepointing as usual. Last time I told you, that I like Zweigart. Another name you'd better keep in mind is Permin. They have lovely Penelope canvases. You'd better go and see. Or should I show you instead?
Rose Pillow
There is one example. And if you want to see more, just go and look.

The kind of canvases I like to stitch

Hello dear readers,

Here I am, typing about my needlepointing as usual. I have seen, how other stitchers have written down their wishes. I think it is my time to write mine. My wishes are rather simple.
* Penelope - canvas
* 10 -mesh
* When it comes to designers, I do not have any favourite one. But I have read the web. Zweigart is one name those, who want to surprise me, could remember.
* I like floral themes.

Pondering

Hello dear readers,

Here I am, typing about my needlepointing as usual. I have read some needlepoint sites. I have found out the gros point aka big stitch, if I translate it right, is the one I make. I also think I stitch over two. I am not sure, but if one thinks of my stitcing logic, that's how it is.
