I decided when I started this pattern I was also going to blog my progress on it as well as the other two patterns and all my other WIPs that are hiding in my closests, in hopes that this will keep me on track with my stitching and life...
As I said, I started Blackstone Garden on December 26th. Along with it I'm also working on Book of InkCircles (Boink) which is a SAL from Tracy Horner. We receive a portion of the pattern every three weeks from Tracy and we have 3 pieces remaining to complete it by the end of February 2009.
The top photo is the piece we just completed for December 23rd and the second photo is the complete project so far.
I am also working on the SAL from Catia Crafts. I haven't gotten as far on that one but here is the most recent photo I have on that one...
Now back to Blackstone Fantasy Garden...I started it on 12/26/08 and I've taken a picture each day before I've started working on it so here is the progress on it so far...
This is the progress from 12/26
This is the progress from 12/27
and now 12/28
I am doing this on 32 ct belfast linen (light mocha is the color) and I'm using the thread pack developed for it from Carrie's Threads.
This is my first real project (I've done a small before but that's it) on linen and my first time using overdyed threads.
I will try to add to this blog on a daily basis but I will definitely try to make it on a weekly basis...
Thanks for reading...
