Afin... na wat gedoe gehad te hebben met vlekjes op de stof is het dan toch eindelijk ingelijst bij lijstenmakerij Zwart in Zierikzee. En ... ik vind hem prachtig! Ben er echt supertrots op. Kijk maar eens voor jezelf:
At last, after 5 years... my 'Night' is finally hanging on the wall! Framed and well. On 26/08/2004 I got my package from Maria van Scharrenburg ordered from our local craft store. I know this date so exactly because the delivery note was always in my embroidery box. On February 5th, 2010 I stitched my last stitch of this project and it was finally finished after about more than five years and five months. I think I have a total of 2 years not worked on it, for the reason that we got two kittens who were quite fond of embroidery threads. They are 3 years of age now and a bit relax than they were kittens (though they occasionally come and sit next to me -as sweet and innocent as they can be- when I'm embroidering, and then an unguarded moment waiting for it to come pick up the threads again!)Afin ... after making some dark spots of dirt from my project, I had it frmed by a framing-store Zwart in Zierikzee. And ... I think it's wonderful! Am really very proud of it. Look for yourself:
- UPDATE: Pot Luck-
Hier een kleine update. De 2 bloemen zijn klaar en ik heb ze zelfs al omrand! Al staat dat nog niet op de foto. Maar omdat ik even de balen kreeg van 'sketchy backstitch' heb ik het even naast mij neer gelegd. Binnenkort ga ik er mee verder, maar nu even niet zo veel zin in. Heeft iedereen wel eens denk ik zo. En als ik er dan eenmaal weer aan begin is het ook zo af! ;o)
Here a tiny update: the 2 flowers are finished and I am doing a bit of backstitching already (not shown on the foto yet). But I'm not so fond of sketchy backstitcing, so I'm not working on it right now. I have to concentrate on it again soon and then I will finish it soon. That can happen I think, that you are done with it for this moment, and work on it later again! ;o)
