Cloud one done!


I finished some stuff!!  I feel like I've been in the middle of doing things for a while now, so it's been good to reach some sort of closure.  This cloud feels like it has taken forever to get to this point.  I have learned a lot in the process, so I think the next cloud will look better for it.  I have finished the canvas stitches, and I think I'm going to move on to the other cloud and leave the pulled work sky to do later.

I have also finished the EPP I was working on.  It was really lovely to be working with something with so much colour while I've been stitching with the whites, greys and blues.

Cloud progress

I think the cloud is starting to come together and look more like a cloud.  I am still offsetting the pattern in each section of cloud, but instead of having nibbly tiny stitches around the edges, I have started to adjust the stitch length to fill the space.  I think this is helping to give it a more organic, cloudy look.

Back to the clouds

The photo is a little bit dark, but I like how it shows the sheen on the thread. It's taken some time to get back into this cloud, but it's been worth it, and now I'm making some progress.  I'm not sure I like the nibbly stitches between each section, but will see how it turns out!
