Miss April, finished

Instead of finishing this as one ornament, I turned it into three little ones.  I did the twisted cord and attached a piece of white felt to the back.  Dated them all and they are done.

All three pieces are ready for finishing.  I cut the canvas apart, the second shows the binding stitches done.  The third shows the edges folded back ready to stitch the flaps down.

I have finished the last row on the design that has to be worked on the stretcher bars.  I need to cut them apart and start the binding stitch around each piece.

I only included two of the three trying to capture the correct color.  The Pebbly Perle Smyrna's are still too  yellow, but I corrected as best I could.  I finished all of the eyelet variations.  I added two rows of Continental in the overdyed Kreinik #8 and have started the next pattern of overdyed floss next to tht.

I have added the final eyelet stitch with the lavender Fyre Werks.  The next row is more Smyrna crosses in Pebbly Perle, which is a pale yellow, not the funky one that shows up.  Then I have started another eyelet variation in Splendor.

Sorry, the picture is a bit dark today.  I have added the third and final ornament to the canvas and they are now all at the same step on the chart!

I have started Miss April and have set up the first two ornaments.  The canvas cut allows for three of the same ornament on the cut.  I will do all three and have extra for gifts.

Quickie Project

Next up is a quickie project!  Christmas Ornaments II chart is by Carolyn Mitchell Designs.  The designs are worked on 6 x 13 inch cuts of 18 count canvas.  This size will make 3 ornaments of the same design if desired.  I am going to get this on the bars and start with Miss April.
