An Open Heart by The Drawn Thread (Picture Heavy)
I am pleased to announce that I have finished An Open Heart. And I am pleased. I did struggle with this one at times but I can't really put my finger on why. I love the colours, the delicacy of it, the stitches, I just had a bit of a battle in the middle of things for a while. As I bought this as a chart only off eBay I substituted the SJ Designs beads for MH ones. On the chart there are 2 sizes so I used Glass Seed beads for the large and Petite for the smaller ones.

ReplyDeleteStill cheerfully awaiting your ornament to complete its journey and arrive--I put the tree up the other day and am looking forward to it joining my other stitched ornaments--yours will tip the balance so that I have more other people have stitched (3) than I have myself on my own tree! I'd better get stitching on that PS Fox ornie! Finished the NPI conversion the other day, so I can get going any time!
I have been keeping up with your progress on this one and I have to say I'm so impressed with it! Congrats on your finish :)
