Come and HAPPY DANCE with me as I finished stitching My Big Toe 10 Commandments!!!! WOOHOO!!! I put the last of the stitches in on last Saturday night, but DH and I had a formal dinner to attend so I was not able to blog about it. I'm sure though if you heard a small...ok loud...squeal that would have been from me when I put in that last stitch!!! However, I did manage to get the picture taken so I would know exactly when I finished it before leaving for the dinner.
Here she is!!! Now.....to take her to be framed!!!!
Thank you for allowing me to share my progress on this project with you. I hope I have not bored you to tears with it.
It is stitched on 36ct Legacy Edinburgh Linen by Picture This Plus using 2 7/8 skeins of Gloriana Midnight Silk thread and 1 skein of NPI #503 (the red accent color). I stitched this with one strand over 2 threads for the entire project with the exception of the Hebrew word underneath "I AM". That is stitched with one strand of Midnight over one linen thread.
I will be sure to post a picture of it when it gets framed.
Happy Stitching everyone!
