I made good progress with the Greenhouse of oddities SAL 3rd planting. Only one shade of green left, as well as the backstitch, before moving on to the 4th planting.
Also I felt compelled to post a pic of my needle after about 3 weeks of work. this set came as a compliment from Cross-stitch corner but same happens with the cheapo needles included in the kits. More “premium” needles (at 20-30¢ a piece) seem to oxidize as well but much slower!
I finished my Lughnasadh teapot this week! Just in time for Lughnasadh (Aug 1) too. I’m planning to watch Meryl Streep’s Dancing in Lughnasa this weekend to celebrate.
I also shifted over to stitching my sister in law a birthday card. I found this adorable pixel art by Fhupaws of a bunny eating cake that I converted into a pattern for it.
That teapot is cool! At first glance I thought the pot itself was painted onto the fabric but now I see it’s just a really smooth gradient 😄
Thank you! 😂 Yeah, the pattern included a lot of blends, so it came out really smooth.
