Already Square

All four corners of the piece are stitched. This is small so it will be done quickly.

 

Treated

Retreat Treat all finished up into an acrylic magnet.

 

Chicken Feet on the Sides

The little pink bits on the sides look like chicken feet when they're not surrounded.

 

Four Hands, No Four Corners Yet

I feel like I am entering the home stretch on this one. Hands almost completed, corners started.

 

Faded

This little mandala is a poor color choice as the stitching fades into the background. Maybe I will restitch it in different colors.

 

Working Toward the Middle

More work on the left lobe this time. It's almost filled in.

 

Swooping Down

Worked on the left side this time. Got some swoopy leaves and flowers.

 

All Arranged

All my mushrooms are done! The dark brown is actually dark red. It just doesn't show up much. But it's done and ready to frame.

 

Most of the Mushrooms

I have most of the mushrooms done after a week of stitching. This will be finished soon.

 

Making the Round

Working on the spiky bits as this gets closer to completion.

 

Little Round Frame

Bought this little round frame and popped the little Ink Circles piece into it. Looks nice and sweet.

 

Two Rounded

Two round areas now, like crowns around the little spiky heart. Getting more done.

 

Getting Handy

The fourth hand is close to complete as the arcs around it begin to close in.

 

Well Over the Hump

Much more than halfway through. A lot of my larger projects are simultaneously inching toward completion.

 

Two Close Colors

This is going to be interesting because the two variegated flosses I am using have some common color between them. It looks rather spring-like so far.

 

A Little Heart

I have a little heart in the middle now, plus a bit more with the middle of the whole thing.

 

Working on the Fourth

 Hand number four is well started. This is looking to be done soon, and will probably become my daily stitch after a few more sessions.

Rethinking The Orange

The orange in the corners bugs me. I think I will rip it out for a different color. In the meantime, lots of little bits getting stitched - and all the way across.

 

Make Stuff May 2023 #28: Penstemon by Ink Circles

Another little bit from Tracy. Colors and fabric changed of course, because overseas.

 

Almost Three Handed

I am getting close to having three full hands done on this, yay! It's coming along, and I still love my color choices. What is yellow in the photo is actually more of a pinkish-white.
