I worked diligently on Adriana all last weekend but didn't get part 3 finished. And unfortunately, I haven't been able to get any more stitching time since Sunday. The dogs and I are back to agility training -- good for the dogs, bad for stitching. Plus we are incredibly busy at work now -- good for work, bad for stitching. I'm hoping I can finish part three Friday evening (my only night off from doing dog stuff) -- though I can hear the couch calling 'NAP TIME' already.
Thank you for the suggestions for painting charms. I read about using nail polish before and will give it a try. I'm not too sure about spray paint. I tend to make a royal mess with it. Spray paints and glues, I'm not so good with -- you gotta know your limitations and those are definitely some of mine.
Happy Groundhog Day!

ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful! I hadn't seen that version of the design before - only the green-on-green version. I stitched that one, as charted by Cross-Stitch-Art. She named it "Birds of Somerset", so I was very excited to find your version and do some googling on the original artist. You can see mine here: http://seeford.multiply.com/photos/photo/2/69
