I recently showed my finished bracelet from my fall cruise trip with needlework teacher and designer Sandy Arthur. Another of the cruise projects from Sandy was the set of four canvas pieces representing our trip. I worked on them during our stitch classes on the cruise and finished the stitching when I got back home.
They were designed as coasters, but I decided to make mine into ornaments. I made the cording from #5 perle cotton and the backing is kimono fabric.
I am happy with the finished ornaments and will happily remember the trip when I look at them.
If the colors are true on my computer, you have a phenomenally beautiful match between the blue on the front and the kimono fabric backing--stunning!

ReplyDeleteEvery time you look at these ornaments you will remember the cruise.
ReplyDeleteAre the white stitches underneath the Colosseum and Familia Sagrada Brick Stitch?
Your finish is gorgeous! and it will be a treat to have your ornaments up for holidays and to remember your cruise.
