Been doing quite a nice amount of stitching lately - considering that I'm taking an unofficial break from work. The oriental stork is progressing fine... have gotten the head & the 'shape' of the 1st stork... though itz a challenge while working the grey & white threads, especially in the evenings and nights (which I normally do). LoL it seems that I do need a daylight bulb. Anyway, am doing some greens rite now, to add a little more color onto the piece. Hopefully I'll get it done in time for my dad's bday. Hmm am still unsure whether to frame it up or make it into a hanging. Framing does seem easier though. Might need a sewing machine to hem the sides if I want it to be a hanging. *thinks* Then again, judging frm the design it should looking better w/o a frame. What do u think?
Anyway itz weird using a scroll frame for the 1st time... but there are advantages. At least I no longer have to waste energy gripping onto the fabric :P Plus, it is possible to stitch with both hands - leaving my left hand at the top & leaving the right at the bottom of the frame. Gotta perfect that technique though... the threads tend to get tangled now and then - very oftenly I end up with 1 strand of floss longer than the other strand in the end. Hahah perhaps I just ain't a perfect stitcher!! This is probably the difference between one who has talent, and one who doesn't (aka me). Anyhow, I don't care. Am satisfied with how the finished projects look so far - guess thatz all that matters.
Speaking 'bout finished projects. Taurus completed and framed last nite. Was behind schedule for about a week. Ack!! 3 more to go b4 full completion. Gotta rush gotta rush!!
