Cross Stitch Skull Update 2

in #craft7 years ago

Last time I posted about the cross stitch I'm working on, it looked like this.

I've done more since; finishing off the orange/ yellow rose, finishing the zigzag Byzantine stitch in the back ground, and filling in the smaller spaces with different stitches.

This is called Algerian Filling stitch.

The cross stitch as it looks now.

It feels like I'm entering the home straight now, with just a bit more filling in, and a touch more work on the large pale rose to finish it off.

Thanks for having a look, and hope you enjoy!
