Update and New Start

I am all caught up on Sylvia's cute 2010 SAL. I like the almost-instant gratification of this project! If you are interested in giving this one a try, don't worry that her blog is in German. There is a translation drop-down list on the top of the right column.

Here is my new start! It is Snowflake Girl by Gay Ann Rogers. What?? You were expecting Paradise Lost?? I got out the fabric (32 ct), ironed it, and taped the edges. But I am still struggling with the best way to proceed. It seems too large for stretcher bars and I am worried about hoop marks if I use a hoop. Sigh. The fabric is 32" X 18". AND I cut the fabric for Le Printemps at the same time and it is huge, too!

  2. Well, I guess Paradise lost will turn up at some point. I do a lot of large projects, but I stitch in hand so I don't have to worry about hoops and stretcher bars. Snowflake girl looks good so far!
