Terry Dryden's Monet's Garden Oval Box! This is a Christmas gift from DH and I am thrilled to start this piece! The kit contains: Two full color photos, the one above, and one showing the piece stitched laid flat out, excellent instructions, line drawn canvas, all the fibers, and a DVD on finishing instructions for the box. Although the hinged lid did not come with it, Ms. Dryden graciously supplied the info and I have the lid as well.To begin, using J. L. Walsh Silk Perle in a soft medium green, I completed the bottom in an alternating Scotch Stitch. The instructions include a couple of options and I chose to use the deeper V option. The box bottom width is 10 1/2" wide and 2 1/2 inches high.
Tomorrow, I add yet another piece into the rotation!

Oh, neat! I love Terry Dryden's work. This is going to be FUN.
Terry's pieces are so much fun. She takes great care and I found she makes it so you have very little compensating so they are very relaxing to work on. Enjoy!
I too love Terry's pieces. Not only are they fun and interesting they come out great!! Keep on posting!!!

Pat,
Looking forward to see this project move along. I had so much fun stitching a piece of hers some time ago.
