I have been working hard on trying to finish my Noel Sampler by With Thy Needle and Thread ... and here it is. I'm so pleased with it. All stitched with DMC threads. There were some issues ...
First .. I did make a mistake on the top border and therefore was one stitch short on the side border.
Second .. The chart and the chart photo did not match on the bottom left border corner. I adjusted this to match the chart photo which meant the border one stitch to the right.
Third .. I had to take out one of the flower / stars in the box in the bottom right corner as my initials were wider than Brenda's initials that were charted. This was referenced in the instructions.

It's a beautiful finish Andrea! I honestly cannot see any area of the border that does not look to be in the correct place. The red house is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is just so very lovely, Andrea! With Thy Needle and Thread designs are always just gorgeous... Congratulations! ♥
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely sampler finish. I didn't notice any amendments you say had to make.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, I'm sure making the adjustments was a chore but worth all your efforts. You stitched this so quickly too!! Now to find a frame that does it justice!!
