Medieval Town Mandala Close Up

The corner is getting there ... I really like the colors, though I've decided I don't like the feel of NPI as much as I do Vikki Clayton's. There's a small part on the outer corner in this picture that needed frogging ... which is done now. This part is going to take a loooong time because there are four corners with this much stitching on them! Perhaps I'll get some caught up on rainy days in France. The part of Normandy we're in is known for a lot of rain, and no drought there like southern England. I really like working on this project more than I do the Midi, and I'm convinced it's partially the color of the background fabric. This light blue looks very good with the silks so far. There are still several colors I haven't used yet. Perhaps they're for the houses around the outer edge.

Oh this is lovely, I've only just bought the chart and was thrilled to see your work in progress, the design is far more beautiful than I had imagined.
