Papaver rhoeas WIP 2
Very slowly, some stems and a bud have formed over the weekend :)The ingenuity of this design (and perhaps most of VEs designs) is that it there are different items to do according to mood.It allows the stitcher to pick an easy, moderate of elaborate item.One such simple item is the leaf on the left.Because I am new to linen and VEs designs, I needed the security of the border, so I started with the 1/2 stitches of stem, building upwards toward the leaf.It was a pleasure to see the leaf forming.And to my utmost surprise, the leaf formed very quickly ! And then I plodded towards the other bigger leaf . . . got quite bored with greens . .and promptly got seduced by the red bits in the bud !
Apologies for the super-bad lighting, will find out how to do better next !
Cheers,

Hi Yovi,
Do give linen a try.After the initial difficulty, you would love it, as I do now !If you are on aida 16 or 18 now, perhaps you might want to try evenweave 25 before linen.
Evenweave has threads that are more even than linen.
I stitch free hand, so no frame for me !
Hope this helps :)
Cheers,
