QS Coral Addiction WIP 6th March 2011

This is where I was at on the 2nd of March:

& here is where I am at as of the 6th of March:

 I'm practically finished her hair on this page...(almost) I was confetti stitching yesterday to bring me to this stage...on the pink section underneath the yellow 'blob' there is krenik thread which is sparkly...not that you can really see from that photo...and her eyes are emerging too...

Tonight's work I think shall be more confetti stitching around her face to the left and right and possibly her eyes...this is one of the pages with the most stitches on it...when I finish her wee face I shall go onto the page to the right as there is more of her hair in this page...

I'm loving her progress, she's beautiful and even the masses of confetti stitches aren't bothering me too much...just making progress slower...

I hope that you like my progress if you've been kind enough to look at my blog...

QS Coral Addiction Work in Progress

3 or 4 days work on my newest HAED design...
Here's a bit more of a close up...
I'm enjoying this design, it is being done on 28 count Polstitches opalescent evenweave - 'Shimmering Seas'...
I've had the backgrund removed so that I am only stitching the main mermaid and her coral below, this is so you can see the hand dyed fabric below...
I'm not sure how many stitches this one has because each page is not a full page of stitches, I might count one day and see how many there are so I can work out how many I've done and also got left to do...

(edit 4/3/2011) I've had a bit of a count today and this design is 27,699 stitches...with the background if I'd chose to stitch that it would've been 42,222...

Thanks for looking if you have done...
